The Word "Bible" Comes to us from the Greek via the Latin. The Greek Expression is 'ta biblia' meaning "the books". The Bible may be described as the collection of writings which the church has recognized as inspired; this collection is also often called the Holy Scriptures, the Sacred Books and especially, the Testament. Bible is not a book of history, not a book of science but it is a book of FAITH. The main content of the bible is how God loved the people and how the people responded to Gods love. In short Bible is the history of the salvation of mankind.

The Bible is the most widely distributed book in the world. Both Hebrew Scripture and the Christian Bible have been translated more times and into more languages — more than 2,100 languages in all — than any other book. It is said that more than five billion copies of the Bible have been sold since 1815, making it the best-selling book of all-time.

The Bible is composed of two parts: the Old Testament and the New Testament.

The Old Testament : The Old Testemnet essentially describes how God loved the people of Israel and how the people responded to His call to love. The Old Testament is the story of this people in the light of the covenant. God's purpose, the redemption of mankind, was to be achieved by the sending of His Son into the world, and the coming of the Son of God naturally marked a new era.

New Testament : God made another and final covenant, sealed in the blood of Christ. It tells about the Messiah Jesus (several times, from several viewpoints)how God loves us, and then Paul's interpretation of Jesus' life and mission and recommendations for how all people should live according to Christ. It finishes with the book of Revelation encouraging the people of God in their faith, at the time of persecution and suffering through symbols and signs which one can understand in their time.

Each "Testament" is further subdivided into individual "Books". The Catholic canon of the Old Testament has a number of books not found in the Hebrew Bible and not regarded by Protestants as Scripture. These disputed books are: Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, 1 and 2 Maccabees - together with parts of Esther and Daniel(Esth. 10:4 - 16:24; Dan. 3:24 - 90; 13-14). These are named as "Deuterocanonical" which means secondary. According to catholic canon there are 46 books (including the Deuterocanonical books) in the Old testament and 27 in New Testament.
