The bible is the only book in history that is written with so much intellectual thought that it is almost beyond human comprehension, actually many parts of it is.

You have to have the ability to see past what is being said and see into the mind of the person it's describing in order to truly understand it.

The people that wrote the bible had to be extremely intelligent at philosophy and understanding the human mind.

What happened to these people?

Did they just write the bible and then die as did Plato, Aristotle and Socrates or did they do other things?

The Bible is a revelation of God to man consisting of sixty-six books bound together and forming on book. Twenty-two of the books of the Bible are mainly historical, twenty-one are largely books of prophecy, twenty-one are in the form of letters, and two are primarily poetic.
Even though written by at least thirty-six different authors who were kings, farmers, mechanics, scientific men, lawyers, generals, fishermen, ministers, and priests, a tax collector, a doctor, some rich and some poor; stretching over a period of 1,600 years the Bible is one book because God was it's real author.

Another joke, right? Scholars? Intellectual thought? Are you high?

"The people that wrote the bible had to be extremely intelligent at philosophy and understanding the human mind."

Now I know you're high. These men were lucky to even be able to read and write. They followed what "God" and "Jesus" told them to do. (At least they stories in the Bible Book of Fairy Tales suggests they did. They rarely did anything the "God" didn't command.) They were primitive by today's standards - why would you just assume that they were extremely intelligent? I mean, the apostles didn't even get some of "Jesus'" parables; they asked for explanations! What are you on? Can you send me some?

many of them have their stories told right there in the script however let us not forget the one who did the inspiring, who lives on. No other writting I have read lives on, and gives new and deeper meaning upon rereading as does scripture in the Bible. There are far too many layers to be the result of just some authors writting. Another point is that often these pages mean nothing to a person until after they have accepted God and then all the sudden it has more meaning than that same person can ingest when reading it at one sitting. Sometimes when reading it I know there is a truth there but can not get it, then 2 years later I read the same passage and it jumps out at me.

I have read Plato etc. they do not do that for me, so my conclusion is it is not the authors that penned the message who are important.

Original Taurah, Original Injeel, revealed to Moses, and Jesus (Peace and blessings of God Almighty on both of them).
But todays Bible I am not sure how many people wrote it, if not every day, every year or every ten to twenty years there are some changes comming to make more logical (iilogically).
In todays bible God bacomes tired also, because at one place it says whan God was creating this univers he became tired and took one day off. What kind of God it is who gets tired and need rest.
This is absolute insult of Almighty God.
God Almighty is sole authority, Unique , no one can come at par. He is incomparable. No partner, does not share of power and authority.
He is the creatore of evry living and nonliving things of universes.
Recognize Him, and only worship God Almighty, the suprem Power. Allah.
Allah: Allah is the proper name in Arabic for The One and Only God, The Creator and Sustainer of the universe.

It is used by the Arab Christians and Jews for the God (Eloh-im in Hebrew; Allaha in Aramaic, the mother tongue of Jesus, pbuh).

The word Allah does not have a plural or gender. Allah does not have any associate or partner, and He does not beget nor was He begotten. SWT is an abbreviation of Arabic words that mean 'Glory Be To Him.

Yes, they died like any other human being. They didn't live forever, but they were a lot more intelligent, as most humans were at the time. The pyramids is a good example of that.

They were closer to creation than we are, as such, less genetic abnormalities. It bottomed out in the first millennium, stayed there for over 1000 years, than began increasing in those born after 1900. Since than, IQ and average age has begun increasing, rapidly.

The Bible was written in several languages over literally thousands of years. It is still being altered. I suppose that many who wrote parts of it went to Heaven and many went to Hell.

Just be sure you never elevate the Bible to a god-like level, that is idolatry. Regard it as a bit of history with some good advice and some not so good advice in it.

Never did get the point of the prodigal son, He should have been fastened to the wall with a threaded device having a slotted head, and his father should have been put in a home for the hopelessly confused.

I believe that the bible, at least the old testament, was written by the people who served in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem, who clearing edited the book in order to promote the monotheistic faith, that emerged in this temple.
the same can be said about the later parts of the bible, it was collected and edited by experts, who lived and worked for the goal of advancing their religion.
although the different books pf the bible contain many contradictions, but it is clear that many books were not included in the bible so as to create a unified smooth edition.

Just because you say,"written with so much intellectual thought that it is almost beyond human comprehension," doesn't make it so. This is pretentious at best. Who among us here could say anything more about the writers of those books than that they just died. Everybody dies. Rule number one... Nobody gets out alive.

like any person they died can you imagine someone doing something so wonderful and they die like all the others in this world hmmm....and only get recognized after death of course they did stuff afterwards now as for it being recorded in the pages of history I can't say but a good start to find out would be look up who wrote the Bible you know their names and see what other work they did more than likely they wrote other works too oh yeah and more than likely they lived way longer than any of us ever will

So, are you saying the bible was written for the sake of Philosophy, or that they understood there was a God. Do you mean to say the whole book is metaphorical, and not meant to be taken literally?
