The Bible is a collection of sixty-six books (or forty-nine scrolls), written by forty different authors, over 1,600 years, yet there is not one contradiction. Choose any other subject matter, gather sixty-six books, by forty authors, spread over 1,600 years, on the chosen topic, and it will result in contradictions.
The Bible was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic. The largest portion of the Bible was written in Hebrew and the smallest portion in Aramaic. While much of the Bible was written in Israel, it was also penned in Babylon, Arabia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The human writers were kings, priests, prophets, soldiers, statesmen, shepherds, fisherman, a tax collector, a doctor, a tent-maker, and a farmer.
The many portions refer to the various genres of the Bible: historical, legal, wisdom, psalms, prophecy, apocalyptic, gospel, and epistles.
The various occupations of the human authors account for the various literary genres of the Bible. The many ways refer to the various processes by which God communicated to man: dreams, visions, theophanies, angels, and prophets. Despite the diversity of languages, locations, authors, occupations, and genres, the Scripture is unique in its harmony and unity.
