-The Bible is composed of 66 books. These recognized inspired texts are known as the canon of Scripture. The Bible is divided into the [[Old Testament]] (39 books) and the [[New Testament]] (27 books). While Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions include additional writings (commonly referred to as the Apocrypha or Deuterocanonical books), the Protestant canon consists only of those texts that were recognized by the Jewish community of the Old Testament era and the early Christian church.+The Bible is composed of 66 books.

-The Bible was originally written in Hebrew ([[Old Testament]]), Aramaic (a few sections, notably in [[Daniel]] and [[Ezra]]), and Koine Greek ([[New Testament]]). Early translations included the [[Septuagint]] (a Greek translation of the Old Testament) and the Latin [[Vulgate]] by Jerome.+The Bible was originally written in Hebrew (Old Testament), Aramaic (a few sections, notably in [[Daniel]] and [[Ezra]]), and Koine Greek (New Testament).

 With the Reformation in the 15th century AD, came a renewed emphasis on making the scriptures available to all people in their native languages. Reformers like Martin Luther and William Tyndale translated the Bible into vernacular (or ordinary and common) languages, often at great personal cost. Their work reflected the Protestant conviction that every believer should have direct access to God’s word. With the Reformation in the 15th century AD, came a renewed emphasis on making the scriptures available to all people in their native languages.
