Books Of the Bible

The Bible has been translated, in whole or in part, into more than 1,100 languages and dialects.

About 30,000,000 copies of the complete text of the Bible, or of its principle parts, are distributed annually.

The first book printed with movable metal type was the Gutenberg Bible, printed by Johannes Gutenberg, before August 15, 1456, in Mainz, Germany.

The first printed Bible divided into verses was a Latin edition by Pagninus, printed in 1528.

The first complete English version of the Bible divided into verses was the Geneva Bible, printed in 1560.

The Bible was written by some 50 men, only one of whom (Luke) was a Gentile.
