Where on Earth Did the Bible Come From? A Study of the Development of the Bible
Ebook
There are many book studies of particular books of the Bible. There is also a myriad of devotional and inspirational books regarding the Bible, and many questions about it. Why are there different accounts of some events? Why is the description of the earth and the world different from what we know today? Many of these questions--and others--are answered when a person learns how the Bible was put together. This book does not deal with theology or doctrine. It is an account of how the various parts of the Bible came to be included. Further, the book traces the journey of the Bible from its initial collections to Jerome and continues until its publication in the English language, in both the Protestant and the Catholic versions. The author has written this book for the eager layman and woman and also for the first-year college or Bible school student who is in a religious studies program.
