The Bible is the scripture book of Christianity. It is made up of two main parts, the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old Testament also contains the scriptures of Judaism. The original Old Testament was written in Hebrew, but when Alexander the Great ruled Greece, the world power, he translated the Old Testament into Greek. This was also known as the Septuagint. The original New Testament was written in Greek. |

" For God so loved the world , that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in Him shall have everlasting life."
This is a verse from the New Testament, perhaps one of the most commonly memorized verses in the entire Bible.
