I believe there is more, but that is some of them. This is coming from a historical sense not a religious one, so take it how you will, but these are the authors attributed to most the books.

Answer 3

That question requires a complex answer. Basically, the Bible was written by dozens of authors over thousands of years.
Of the many religious writings had by the Jews, and then by the Christians, certain books were chosen as "orthodox" and included in the scriptural canon that we now call "Bible" (which originally simply meant "books").
Christians (and Jews for the Hebrew Bible) believe that the authors who wrote the books in the Bible did so under the inspiration of God. Thus, the Bible is the Word of God as communicated to his servants, the Prophets.

Answer 4

I am answering this question in a historical sense, not a religious one.

The real answer is: Nobody really knows who wrote most of the books. The only books whose authorship is known are Paul's epistles, which were actually written by Paul. All the other books are of unknown authorship. Some were attributed by their author to certain people, like Mark, Matthew, Luke and John, but were probably written decades after these men were dead.

Speaking only of the Christian works here, in the years after Jesus was crucified there were many many Christian documents. There were gospels that related the life of Christ, books like 'Acts' which related deeds and lives of apostles and disciples, letters like Paul's letters answering questions and giving commentary and church policy, and even several books like Revelation which told of the coming apocalypse.

About 400 years after Jesus, the Roman emperor Constantine converted to Christianity and made it the official religion of the Roman Empire. At this point there were many different Christian sects who believed a wide variety of different things. So Constantine convened a council to pick which of all the existing documents were 'canonical' in order to create one official version of Christianity. This resulted in the New Testament. Many existing documents were excluded from the canon because they didn't agree with the thoughts of the group who put the book together. Several of those documents still exist, and they make interesting reading!

Today Christians believe that God inspired men to write these books, and inspired the Council of Nicea to pick the right ones and leave out the bad ones. But from a historical perspective it looks more like there were political struggles in the early church and one group won out, and -their- views became the official church view.

As for the Old Testament, for many years it was a traditional belief among Jewish people that Moses wrote the first 5 books, the 'Torah'. The tradition says that these books were dictated to Moses by God on Mount Sinai after the Exodus from Egypt. But in a historical sense it's not very likely, especially when you consider that these books relate the story of the death of Moses, and even things that happened after that.

The books of the Old Testament are also of unknown authorship. They even show evidence of having been edited over the years, with differing versions of the same story being included. For instance there are two different stories of the creation and two different stories of Noah's flood.

Answer 5

The individual books of the Bible were written by humans as they were inspired by God's Holy Spirit. Some of the writers of the Old Testament include: Moses, King David, King Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Daniel. Some of the writers of the New Testament include: the apostle Matthew, John Mark, Luke, the apostle John, the apostle Paul, the apostle Peter, and James the brother of Jesus.

Answer 6

Who wrote the Bible? I'm sure you meant to write. GOD selected prophets to write them. The first five books call the pentatuech were written by Moses in the SPIRIT of GOD. All the Books of the Bible are considered to be "inspired" by GOD. Men wrote them down used by GOD for GOD'S purpose. In most cases the authors were prepared for their task, in order to prepare mankind for that which was to come, in particular the entire Old Testament is about the coming MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST . . .and the New Testament is about the KINGDOM which is to come and what we must do to inherit that KINGDOM. . .

The Bible was put together by the Early Church from the Septuigent which are from Jewish HOLY Scriptures, and from the writings of the Apostles in the New Testament which all are called the "Vulgate" The First Bible was the Latin Vulgate.

Since until the advent of the printing press most people couldn't read and books had to be meticulously scribed by monks, they were very expensive and most people couldn't own them. The printing press and the protestant revolt happened about the same time, which led to a deluge of bibles and dictionaries to learn how to read them. The result was not necessarily good.

People must be taught. And that teaching is not on an individual basis but in the light of sacred tradition where we learn from the teachings of those blessed in the HOLY SPIRIT. Such as the Saints as Augustine and Aquanis and the Apostles . .. But a revised truncated Bible isn't a road map for a blind guide. . .

Incidentally i like to point out the wise man in the book of acts who in trying to read isaiah admitted he needed to be taught by one who knew. Today everyone has an opinion but do they know better than the Apostles on how to read scripture? We must read these things in the light of Sacred Tradition.

Amen.

Answer 7

There were 40 authors of the Bible. All of them were Jewish, except Dr. Luke who was a gentile Christian.

They wrote over a period of 1600 years.

All of them wrote under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit which is why what they wrote is called the Word of God.

Answer 8

The New Testament was created in 312A.D. It is a censored
combination of gospels that where around at the time. Constantine gathered all the church leaders to get all Christians on the same page.

They all voted on which one to put in the new Testament and which ones to exclude. Instead of putting all of the Gospels in. That is why the New Testament is a censored account of Jesus.

Your answer is...Constantine's censoring council of church leaders in 312A.D.
