The Bible is a Christian canon of ancient Israelite and Second Temple Jewish texts, that Christianity came to consider as inspired. All Bibles are made of the Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament) and the New Testament; some include additional texts (the so-called OT Apocrypha) and occasionally, writings from the OT Pseudepigrapha and/or the NT Apocrypha.

Overview

The Christian Bible includes the Old Testament (or Hebrew Bible) and the New Testament. The OT Apocrypha are deemed "canonical" only by some Christian denominations. Some OT Pseudepigrapha as well as some NT Apocrypha have also been occasionally printed in editions of the Christian Bible.

The Christian Bible was translated in antiquity in several languages, including Syriac, Latin, Armenian, and others.

The first printed Bible appeared as early as 1452-1455 in Latin translation. Ever since, the Christian Bible have been published virtually in all major languages.

The study of the Christian Bible have generated a massive amount of introductions, commentaries, journals, and websites.
