Who wrote the Bible?

Answer 1

Hi, I am not sure who wrote it according to current Christian beliefs, but I think everyone knows the Bible was modified by the Church during the dark ages. According to Islamic beliefs though the Bible was given to Jesus by God in the original form. Later on it was changed by the people and corrupted by the corrupt Catholic church of the dark ages. So most of the original stuff is missing or changed. But again according to Islamic beliefs Bible, or any other Holy Books were written by God.

Answer 2

The Bible is composed of many books. As a matter of Fact the Word Bible comes from the Greek Byblos that means Books. It was written from the Year 5000 BC to the first Century AD, So its Virtually impossible to know every single Author. The Old Testament is attributed mainly to Moses, Noah, David and Isaiah. With a Deuterocanonical Books attributed to Tobit
Judith, Solomon and others. Of course there is also the Famous Book of Enoch but is Apocrypha for many. The New Testament is authored by Matthew, Paul, Mark and Luke. Mark and Luke were written by others under the direction of Mark and Luke Respectively,

Answer 3

Most of the old testament was origionally written by mosses, then lost during the persecution of the jews by the romans. Every effort was made to compile it back to its origional state, but there were two trains of thought and so they put both in the rewrite. Hence two creation stories etc.
The new testament was in the main written by Paul with some contributions by John. This was edited and rewritten for the council of nicaea by augustine.

Answer 4

Depends!

The Judeo-Christian bible is a compilation of 66 books, most by different authors but some by the same. Some books are named for their authors, such as Jeremiah and Isaiah, or I Peter and II Peter in the New Testament. Moses wrote a bunch of books in the OT, Paul wrote a lot of the NT.

It wasn't until the Council of Nicaea that the Church officially affirmed which books would be generally accepted as divinely inspired.

Answer 5

Didn't anyone ever hear it suggested that women recorded the events and then a group of men transcribed it into history. I think that was the just of what a professor once said in a lecture about the Bible. Truth or not I don't know at all.

Answer 6

The KJV was written by men inspired by God who were full of the Holy Spirit.

Sometimes I wonder about the NKJV, NIV, NASV, because they omit some words. Over 50 years ago, the only Bible I can remember was the KJV and now they fall out of the woodwork.

Answer 7

There were several authors. The Bible was written over a period of a few thousand years.

Answer 8

The canonical text of the bible is 66 individual books. Who wrote some of them is obvious, eg Revelation of John was written by John (!) St Paul's Letters were written by Paul. Easy really. It's like asking who wrote Ann Frank's Diary.

Answer 9

Many will name the authors as luke, matthew and so on, yet, in truth the identity's of the Biblical authors are unkown.

Further, the high majority have a belief that biblical recordings are of a physical nature I I tell you this is not so as it was of a spritual nature and thus "non physical" in our terms of our world.

Answer 10

the Bible was compiled after the Council of Nicaea that happened in about 325 AD where loads of politicians and religious figures from across the Roman Emperor came to debate how to make Christianity into a religion. No individual wrote the bible, it's a mixture of loads of tales that supported the power of those who published it. basically, it's purely propoganda.
