The '''Bible ''' is the collection of documents acknowledged by Christians to be inspired by God. The Bible contains 66 books (Catholic and Orthodox contain 73) and is divided into the [[Old Testament]] and the [[New Testament]]. It tells of the story of the [[creation]] of the universe and [[man]] by [[God]], the rebellion of man against God and his rescue plan for humanity through his Son, [[Jesus Christ]].
The word Bible comes from the Greek word for book, [[biblion]].
