Healed Hope Old Testament 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Bible is not a single book; it is a collection of books whose complex development is not completely understood. The oldest books began as songs and stories orally transmitted from generation to generation. The most comprehensive and importend stories true and from the bible.

The final book of the New Testament is the Book of Revelation, also known as the Apocalypse of John. In the New Testament canon, it is considered prophetical or apocalyptic literature. 

John the Evangelist, i.e. author of the Gospel of John) or to another John designated 'John of Patmos', after the island where the text says the revelation was received (1:9). Some ascribe the writership date as c. 81–96 AD, and others at around 68 AD.

The Acts of the Apostles is a narrative of the apostles' ministry and activity after Christ's death and resurrection, from which point it resumes and functions as a sequel to the Gospel of Luke. Examining style, phraseology, and other evidence, modern scholarship generally concludes that Acts and the Gospel of Luke share the same author, referred to as Luke–Acts. Luke–Acts does not name its author.

The Beginning

Every day should be a holy day Long ago, before there was any time. God created the heavens and the Earth. At first there was nothing but a vast dark space of swirling water.  God looked at the darkness and made the light. There was now the light of day and the dark of night. This was the very first day. On the second day, God made the sky. He put some of the water in clouds in the sky, and the rest of the water He made into the seas. In between the sky and the seas was the air. Then God collected the seas together so that there was dry land between them. He ordered all kinds of plants and trees to grow on the land to produce seeds and fruit. That was the third day. On the fourth day. God put the brilliant golden sun in the sky to shine during the day, and the silver moon and stars to shine at night. Together they marked the seasons of the year. Next God created all the fish and creatures that live in the seas, and all the birds and creatures that fly in the air. He blessed them, and t

I'll talk to him tomorrow When they reached Bethlehem, it was harvest time for the barley. Naomi and Ruth were very poor. To get food. Ruth walked out to the fields each morning and picked up the barley the reapers had left behind. Elimelech lived in the little town of Bethlehem. in Judah, with his wife, Naomi, and his two sons. There had been bad harvests and everyone was growing hungry.  To save his family. Elimelech took them on the long journey across the Jordan River to the country of Moab, where there was plenty of food.

From Origin

The word 'Bible', is the equivalent of the Greek word biblia (diminutive from bı́blos, the inner bark of the papyrus), meaning originally 'books.' The phrase 'the books' (ta biblia ) occurs in Daniel 9:2 (Septuagint) for prophetic writings. 

In the Prologue

to Sirach it designates generally the Old Testament Scriptures; similarly in 1 Macc 12:9 ("the holy books"). The usage passed into the Christian church for Old Testament (2 Clem 14:2), and by and by (circa 5th century) was extended to the whole Scriptures.

Bibliotheca Divina

Jerome's name for the Bible (4th century) was "the Divine Library" (3) Afterward came an important change from plural to singular meaning. In process of time this name, with many others of Greek origin, passed into the vocabulary of the western church; and in the 13th century, by a happy solecism, the neuter plural came to be regarded as a feminine singular, and 'The Books' became by common consent 'The Book' (biblia, singular), in which form the word was passed into the languages of modern Europe" (Westcott, Bible in the Church, 5).
