The Bible (from Greek τα βιβλία, ta Bible, 'books') is the set of canonical books of Judaism and Christianity. The canonicity of each book varies depending on the tradition adopted. According to Jewish and Christian religions, spread the word of God. The Bible has been translated into 2303 languages

The Bible is a collection of texts that were originally separate documents (called "books"), written first in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek for a very dilated and then assembled to form the Tanakh (Old Testament for Christians) and then the New Testament. Both testaments form the Christian Bible. In itself, the texts that make up the Bible were written over approximately 1000 years (from 900 to. C. and 100 d. C.). The oldest texts are in the Book of Judges ("Song of Deborah") and so-called sources "E" (Elohist tradition) and "J" (Yahwist tradition) of the Torah (Pentateuch by Christians call), which is dated at the time of the two kingdoms (tenth to eighth. C.).

The oldest complete book, that of Hosea is also from the same era. The Jewish people in the Bible identifies the Tanakh, not indulging in any way the term Old Testament and does not accept the validity of the so-called New Testament, recognized as sacred only the Tanakh text.

The canon of the Bible we know today was sanctioned by the Catholic Church under Pope Damasus I, at the Synod of Rome in the year 382, ​​and this version is the Estridón Jerome translated into Latin. This charge consists of 73 books: 46 constituting the so-called Old Testament, including 7 now called Deuterocanonical books (Tobit, Judith, Maccabees, II Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach, and Baruch), which have been challenged by Jews and Protestants, and 27 of New Testament. It was confirmed at the Council of Hippo in 393, and ratified by the Councils III of Carthage, in 397, and IV of Carthage in the year 419.

When I challenged Protestant reformers, the Catholic canon was again confirmed by decree in the fourth session of the Council of Trent of April 8, 1546. None of these decisions was recognized and accepted by many Protestants, arising from the XVI century, and by various names linked to Protestantism emerged from the nineteenth century. The canon of orthodox Christian Bibles is even broader than the canon of Roman Catholic Bibles, including Psalm 151, the Prayer of Manasseh, the third book of Ezra and the Book III of the Maccabees. In addition to these, the Book IV of IV Esdras and the Book of Maccabees are also important as appendices in many versions and editions of the Bible Christian Orthodox.

The Old Testament tells the story mainly Jews and the New Testament, the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, his message and the history of the early Christians. The New Testament was written in Koine Greek. It is frequently quoted the Old Testament of the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Old Testament produced at Alexandria (Egypt) in the third century. C.
