Who wrote the Bible, and when? How was it decided which texts would be included? And what is the significance of the Dead Sea Scrolls? Offering straightforward explanations of how Scripture was written, preserved, and transmitted, Lawrence Schiffman and Jerry Pattengale detail the revolutionary content and lasting relevance of these words, and explore how Gutenberg's printing press and the King James Bible helped spread Christianity around the world. Discussing the composition of the Bible chronologically, this illustrated history profiles such significant later figures as Jerome, Tischendorf, Luther, Erasmus, Maimonides, Wycliff, and Tyndale.
