Bible Question: Why have the epistles of the New Testament been put in the Bible in the order they are in? |
Bible Answer: because they are in the order in which they were written (most of them), others were written discussing the same or similar topic such as 1 John, 2 John, 3rd John. If you check your bible at the begining of the chapter some bibles list the year in which the letter was written. The bible is listed book by book in chronological order, except, Job is moved for some reason (it was written before moses). |
