FACTS ABOUT THE BIBLE

1t may surprise many TO know that
there are two chapters in the Bible
which are almost Identical. these being
the nineteenth chapter of the Second
Book of Kings and the thirty seventh
chapter of Isaiah. There are 929 chap
ters with 592,lo3 words in the Old Tes-
lament and $50 chapters and 1925
words in the New Testament. If ask ed
offhand most people would probably
say there were more words in the Bible
than in Shakespeares works. but as
matter of fact. the balance is in favor
OF the Bard, who has over 10000 words
more than the Bible. Altogether his
plays have no fewer than l.277 char
acters, one OF whon-Hamlet. has H.
61o words to deliver. Hamlet" indeed
is the longest play, containing as it
does 3.93o lines. while the Comedy of
Errors" is the shortest. with LIT
lines. The longest word is "honorfi-
cabilitudinatibus." The curious can
ind all the letters of the alphabet in
the twenty-frst verse of the seventh
chapter of Ezra. while reference to
the One Hundred and Seventeenth Psalm
will show that it is not only the short
est chapter in the Bible but also the
middle chapter of the Book.
