Bible

From Libertarian Wiki

The Bible, or the Holy Scriptures, is the collection of texts sacred to Judaism and Christianity, and consists of two parts: the thirty-nine books of the Jewish faith known as the Tanakh, or the Old Testament, to which additional books are recognized by Christians; and the twenty-seven books and letters of the New Testament of the Christian faith. Originally written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, the Bible has been translated in more than two thousand languages; in terms of sales and distribution the Bible is the most-widely distributed, largest-selling book in history; the over-all influence and impact the Bible has had on literature, culture, and history is beyond calculation. Most Christians, Protestant and Catholic, agree on the 27 books of the New Testament, but the Protestant Bible includes 39 books of the Old Testament while the Catholic Bible includes an extra 7 books, for a total of 73. The Protestant Bible has 593,493 words in the Old Testament and 181,253 words in the New Testament.
