more and portions of it in 622, or
a total of 1921 tongues.

Scholars estimate that 1885,
100000 Bibles have been printed

The Bible was first written by
the Jews, from history, tradition,

The Hebrew Scriptures were
translated into Greek between the
third and first centuries before
Christ. The New Testament was
written in Greek, adopted by
early Christians and translated by
Jerome into the Latin, or Vulgate
