Surely that depends on which version of the bible you have.

Does it have summaries of the chapters, of the books?
Is it a Bible with maps included and outlines? Are we talking about one with alot of footnotes? No footnotes? Is this a small print Bible or is it standard print or one of the large typefaces?
Does the Bible have event or people pictures in it? And ofcourse what version is it and by whom? For example Dakes will be loaded with his footnotes no matter if it is a NIV, ASV, LAM, NASB, KJV or whatever other version it is. Is it a study Bible full of study helps or is it a specialty Bible-for example I have one that has both the Hebrew and English in the O.T. and in the New Testament it gives me both the Greek and English. I also have one called The Word which offers me 50 versions to compare, and I have one that divides the page down the center giving me two versions on each open page for a total of 4 versions that are the most popular ones to compare. I have the Lamsa Bible too which is based in the OT not on the Hebrew alone but on the old Syriac that Hebrew derrives from and the
Greek is rather different also. For example instead of reading that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter heaven, it translates it with good reasons that it is easier for a rope to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven. While I am on the subject of translation-are you familiar with the verse that THE SPIRIT IS WILLING BUT THE FLESH IS WEAK? Well, some languages have certain words for things and others have no word for some things or a different word. So do you know how in Russian that verse translates? It reads: THE WINE IS FERMENTED AND THE MEAT IS ROTTEN. That is so different and yet the same because we are speaking of the spirit which is the fruit or one could say the wine of/in us and the flesh which is meat. Anyway, the type and the version of the Bible as well as who endorses it for what purpose, will make a difference in how many pages your Bible has but I guess the smallest I have seen is about 900 pages and the largest is over 3000. 1500 pages is about average I would say.

The bible is created from many parts..pages only being one of them. You need glue and cardboard to make a good strong one though, & its size (number of pages) will depend on how big your writing is. You could save time,and paper, and only include all the proven bits of the bible. You may even get it down to pamphlet size.

Depends on the Bible itself. If you have a slimline Bible it is going to have less pages than a large print text Bible. I don't know that there is a correct answer.

It depends on the size of the print and the size of the bible. Small font, shorter bible. Larger pages, shorter bible.

Nippynapper you were caught napping on this one..................Very difficult to answer a question about pages in the bible seeing as it has been reprinted by hundreds of publishers for hundreds of years.
