text: * Decline. I do not support this change and the reason is within the sentence itself: because it is seen in different ways. Everyone does not consider it divinely inspired even if they consider themselves "believers". Removing "generally" implies a universal agreement that does not exist.Jenhawk777 (talk) 19:20, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

message: Diverse religious communities have compiled religious texts into various official collections. The earliest known collection consisted of the initial five books of the Bible. This information highlights the historical significance of religious texts as a means of preserving cultural and spiritual beliefs for future generations. Yumyam (talk) 13:57, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

message: The Bible (from Koine Greek τὰ βιβλία, tà biblía, 'the books') is a collection of religious texts or scriptures, some, all, or a variant of which, are held to be sacred in Christianity, Judaism, Samaritanism, Islam, Baha'i'ism and many other religions. The Bible is an anthology, a compilation of texts of a variety of forms, originally written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Koine Greek. These texts include instructions, stories, poetry, and prophecies, and other genres. The collection of materials that are accepted as part of the Bible by a particular religious tradition or community is called a biblical canon. Believers in the Bible generally consider it to be a product of divine inspiration, but the way they understand what that means and interpret the text varies.

message: Please change “includes instructions” to sometimes includes instructions. With all the antisemitism at the moment it pays for people researching to have understanding. The jewish “bibles” as you call them do not contain instructions, they are purely history books of ancestors. The mishkan t’filah shows instructons for proggressive judeans and there are many factions each with their own prayer/instruction book. Correction9 (talk) 23:42, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

message: Noted CE is instead of AD. To maintain consistency with the historical importance of BC/AD, AD should be utilised. Jpeters9 (talk) 11:53, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Common Era is both more important and more neutral than Anno Domini. Jesus is not our dominus.Dimadick (talk) 13:37, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text:  Not done: This has been discussed extensively - in archives 2, 8, 15, 16, and probably others. Consensus each time has been that BCE/CE is preferred since this article discusses both the Jewish and Christian Bibles. Were it about the Christian Bible only, BC/AD might be appropriate.
