The Bible, also known as the Holy Bible, is a group of religious texts of Judaism and Christianity, it contains the both Old Testament and The New Testament.
Old Testament
The Christian Bible is a collection of 66 books. The first 39 books are the Old Testament. It is the first part of the God's story of salvation. "Salvation" is God's long work of saving us from our sins.?To prepare the way, God had to destroy the whole world by a great flood, except for the family of Noah. Then God raised up a new people for Himself. They were the ancient Hebrews. God promised the Hebrews they would bring His salvation to the whole world. The first five books of the Old Testament are mostly the story of how God chose the ancient Hebrews and taught them his laws. Following these are the twelve books that tell the history of the Hebrews
New Testament
The second part is called the New Testament. The main part of this book is the story of the life of?Jesus Christ. The four different versions of this story in the New Testament are called the?Gospels. After the Gospels, there is also the story of what happened to the?Church?after Jesus's death and resurrection. Part of this is told through letters by early Christian leaders, especially?Saint Paul.
The four gospels that we find in the New Testament, are of course, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The gospels are very peculiar types of literature. They're not biographies. I mean, there are all sorts of details about Jesus.
Jesus Christ is God's Son who came to earth to save us from sin, sadness, loneliness, pain, and more. Jesus taught beautiful lessons about service and love and performed many miracles while He was on earth.
Significant/Scientific Facts About the Bible
1.?????There are 185 Songs in the Bible
2.??????Jesus Is Never Described in Detail.-The only Bible verse that gives any indication of Jesus’s appearance is Isaiah 53:2 “he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him.”
3.???This passage can be found in Isaiah 40:22 (NIV),
“He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers.”
This book dates back to about the 8th century—acknoledged that “Earth is Round”
4.?This is found in Job 26:7 (NIV), which dates back to approximately the 6th century B.C.: Earth is in Space.
?“He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.”
At the time of this writing and for centuries afterward, many didn’t believe in a free-floating Earth. In fact, the Bible also supports that the Earth revolves around the sun, which was not discovered until millennia later.
5.?With modern science, you know that blood is needed for life.. In Leviticus 17:11 (NIV), it is noted that-Blood Is the Source of Life
“For the life of a creature is in the blood.”
6.?Written in about the 8th century, Amos discusses the ocean going into other lands and bodies of water. In Amos 9:6 (NIV) it says,--Hydrologic Cycle
“He calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the land."
?Another verse that reflects this cycle is Ecclesiastes 1:7 (KJV):
"All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.”
7.??Bible discussed the weight of air in Job 28:25 (ESV): Air Has Weight
“When he gave to the wind its weight and apportioned the waters by measure.”

The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:
The primary meaning of the Hebrew word “proverb” is “mashal,” which means “comparison.” But the word “proverb” has come to mean a book of thought provoking pronouncements, principles and teachings. It is amazing the Book of Proverbs was written sometime during the 10th century and its words are still viable and important for us to live by in this 21st Century.?
1??First of all, Proverbs is designed to give us WISDOM. The word “wisdom” in the context of Proverbs, means to have the skills to live life successfully. These skills cannot be learned in a classroom.
2??Secondly, Proverbs is designed to allow us to know instruction. Through the study of Proverbs, we receive the moral discipline needed to live one’s life successfully. Proverbs is full of instructions about moral discipline. Moral discipline can only come through God’s Word.
3?Lastly, The Book of Proverbs teaches us understanding and discernment. A careful study of Proverbs provides the believer with the capability to distinguish between what is right and wrong, what is good or bad, and what matters most and what does not matter at all.
