Description
The Amazing Story of How We Got the Bible Discover how the Bible came to be in Scribes and Scripture. This engaging book answers common questions about the writing, copying, canonizing, and translating of the Bible, providing readers with tools to interpret the evidence about God's word. From the invention of the alphabet to the most recent English translations, Meade and Gurry explore three main areas: the writing and copying of the Bible, the canonization of the Bible, and the translation of the Bible. Using Old and New Testament scholarship, they help readers better appreciate the story of the Bible as a way to understand its stories. With engaging visual content, including maps, charts, sidebars, and pictures, Scribes and Scripture is an ideal resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the Bible's history and significance.
