Bible Question: are all bibles in the book shop nt and ot |
Bible Answer: Adding an additional comment, some Bibles in the bookstore are NOT divided into Old Testament and New Testament, but placed in chronological order based on the publisher's belief on when the passage was written. This will cause some of the accepted publishing orders to be altered to allow for chronological flow. I have two of these style Bibles which are actually very nice for personal reading, but couldn't really be used in a group study (i.e. books and sections of the books are intermingled so you would have a hard time turning to a passage). Also, some devotional Bibles are broken done by calendar days and may have a passage from the OT, NT, and Psalms. So there are different styles of Bibles based off of the Old Testament and New Testament canonized Scriptures. Hopefully, I didn't confuse matters, because the Protestant Bible is based off of 66 books divided into two Testaments (Old and New). Brad |
