The Holy Bible comprises sixty-six books penned by approximately forty authors over fifteen centuries—yet unified by one divine Author. These sacred writings preserve God's progressive self-revelation to humanity: His character, His purposes, and His redemptive plan accomplished through Jesus Christ. The Scriptures consist of two testaments, the Old and the New, which together form a coherent testimony to the gospel.The Hebrew Scriptures (תנ״ך, TaNaKh) consist of תּוֹרָה (Torah, Law), נְבִיאִים (Nevi'im, Prophets), and כְּתוּבִים (Ketuvim, Writings). The Greek New Testament (καινὴ διαθήκη) records Christ's incarnation, the establishment of His church, and apostolic teaching. Christ Himself testified: 'all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me' (Luke 24:44).
