Answer 2

The Bible was authored by many people through the ages. Most of it was just passed down orally. Eventually, an "official" version of the Old Testament was created a few years BC called the Septuagent. A few hundred years later, the Catholic Council of Carthage gathered all the versions of the Old Testament and New Testament and created an "official" canon. The discarded books of the Bible were called Apocrypha. However, several versions of the canon existed and the Bible, itself, was edited up to the 15th century.

None of the versions of the Bible are correct. When you make changes to a fairytale, you just get another fairytale.

We don't know what the "original" version of the Bible was. There are several old manuscripts that we've found, but only bits and pieces. The stories, themselves, were not original in the first place. Most of the stories were derived from previous myths and legends.

Answer 3

The present day King James Version was composed from previous bibles by Catholic Priests about 400 A.D. There were many previous versions written in languages that are little understood today. How many previous bibles there were is pretty much kept secret. The bible came from primitive people who had little understanding of the World that they lived in (God told them that the Earth was flat). We know that the story of Adam & Eve is incorrect because when members of the same family bear children, the offspring are always born with genetic defects like sterility and Mongolism (Down Syndrome). There are many mistakes in the present day bible, not just Adam & Eve.

Answer 4

The 66 books of the Bible were penned by men chosen by God. They wrote as the Holy Spirit directed what to write, it is God's word not mans.The old testament was mainly written in Hebrew and the new in Greek and Aramaic, It was originally translated into Latin. Later it was translated into English(KJV). In recent years there have been many translations to try and put it into a more modern English. There are also some paraphrase editions made. I find the KJV still the most accurate and easier to understand. The NIV is the most popular today in the western world. I would recommend to anyone wanting to start reading the Bible to start by reading the book of John in the NT and follow it with the book of Romans. The focus of the OT is the coming Messiah, the NT is the Messiah coming dieing for the sins of man, rising from the dead and His promise to return for His Church.

Answer 5

The bishops of the Catholic Church, gathered in Council at Carthage, North Africa in 397 A.D., finalized the Canon of Scripture and compiled the Bible once and for all time. Not a word of the Bible has been changed since, except of course by the early founders of Protestantism, who threw out 7 Old Testament books, attempted to throw out 3 New Testament books, and added words to the text here and there in an effort to support their new doctrinal ideas. But the pure and complete Bible, just as it was originally compiled, is still available at any Catholic bookstore.

Answer 6

Fishermen, a tax collector, a physician, an a very well educated Pharisee who converted to Christianity.

The Greek New Testament is the most correct

None. If it was edited the small differences would have been taken out, like one gospel says Jesus was wrapped in a red robe and another says a scarlet robe. An editor would have made it one or the other.

Answer 7

I read the original Hebrew version to get clarification on the translation. Some versions are not translated as well.

Answer 8

There is actually one theory that a family called Pissa, no pun intended, wrote the Bible and I read this in a David Icke book and not Dan Brown if he included it in his fiction.

Answer 9

200 years after the death of christ the church decided it was time to get everyone on the same page of christianity so they got together and took some of the gospels written by the apostles and added them to some of the old jewish books and called it the word of God
