Timeline of Bible Origins
The Bible is not a book that fell from heaven fully formed. It is a divine library written through human hands across centuries and continents, yet telling one unified story — creation, fall, redemption, restoration — centered on Jesus Christ. Understanding its origin deepens our trust in its reliability and our wonder at the God who spoke.
