i Was wondering who wrote the bible, what i mean by that is who put it togeather and made it the bible ?

Answer 1

The Books of the bible were written by men chosen or raised up by Jehovah over a period of more than 1500 years.
The books were bound together from translated scrolls sometime before the printing press was invented.
It had been copied for many years by hand by Monks, and was distributed by the Catholic church to it's parishes.
Once the Printing press was invented, the earliest known Bible was the German Gutenberg Bible.
Divisions of religion began when various men discovered that the Church's teachings were flawed.

Answer 2

The verbal bible was carried in the heads of Jewish people throughout time and sometimes written in scrolls.

The oldest scrolls are rather new, compared to the year 5766, which is what the Jewish calendar says is the current year.

Most of what we have comes from Greek transcriptions and they are incompelte or fragments.

Stories, the verbal Bible, eventually became fully written out by a variety of people with different parts here and there.

The New Testiment was largely written by the Disciples, mostly Peter, who founded the churches that became the Roman Catholic church years later.

A lof of his stuff was letters to flocks in different countries (the Corinthians, the Romans, etc.).

These letters were his preachings, his sermons.

These were eventually collected by a variety of churchs or orgnaizations.

It was said that a relative of Jesus, the person who gave up his tomb for JEsus, went to Wales and founded a bible cult there.

Eventually many different hand written Bibles were around, with small differences.

King James of England commissioned a translations, that was eventually abridged a little with books deleted a few years later.

This became the King James Bible used primarily in some Protestant sects and the Church of England.

The Catholic Bible is similar, but has some different stresses or translations.

There are also other bibles such as the "Standard Bible" that have different books and slightly different texts.

Sources such as the Dead Sea scrolls have yet to be fully incorporated into a revison of the bible.

So we are largely using a traditional HEbrew Old Testament, with some changes made from Greek fragments and the NEw Testament is from the collective works of the Catholic Churches as transcriptions of letters and other documents written by or attributed to the Disciples.

The Bible as we know it is probably no older than 3,000 years in a written, documented form. In many cases it is much newer, as new as transcriptions from the 1200 AD period.

We can feel certain that the document has been open to interpretation, slanting, bias and re-writing of history to suit the needs of the powers that be, which is why many different sources are used to make the final work.

We know, for example that the number of the beast 666 was once written as 616 in one fragement. This, then, leaves us to wonder who got it right, who got it wrong or was it just a typo!

Answer 3

The Old Testament was canonized by the Jews in the late centuries BC, probably mostly by the priests. The New Testament was canonized officially during the fourth century AD at the council of Nicea, though most Christians had been in agreement about the books to be canonized since the end of the first century. The church recognized the need to make the canonization official when false gospels began to be written in the third century.

As a note on one of the other entries, King James is who ordered that an English translation of the Bible be made.

Answer 4

It depends on who you ask. The bible was writen by over 40 authors. Through a 2000 year period. The old testament is taken from the Jewish bible. Which the books were decided on aproximetly 60AD. The whole bible as we know it was put together at the time of king james. Those are the historical part. As a christian I belive that the holy spirit inspired every word in the bible, and that the holy spirit also decided which books belong, and which don't belong into the bible we have today.

Answer 5

There were several books of the Bible floating around in the early days of the church, many of them written by followers of certain apostles and attributed to them. Since it was in the tradition of that apostle, they didn't consider it to be wrong. When Constantine legalized Christianity, he ordered the bishops to come up with a standardized Bible. They met in Nicea, where they debated for some time until they finally agreed on the books we now know as the New Testament. By the way, for all of you who quote Revelation all the time, it was almost not included, because it was so different from Jesus' teachings, and it was written so much later.

Answer 6

God directed people to do it.The word "bible" comes from the Greek word "biblia" which means "books." The Bible doesn't only contain the word of God but it is the word of God. About 40 different authors wrote the Bible during a period of time of about 1500 years. The Bible covers a time period of about 4000 years. The Bible consists of two parts, the Old and the New Testament, altogether 66 books.

Answer 7

The various texts were compiled by the Papacy at the council of Nicea
