Piibel

The piibel is a collection of religious texts central to Judaism and Christianity. In Judaism, it refers to the Tanakh, which is divided into three parts: the Torah (the Law), the Nevi'im (the Prophets), and the Ketuvim (the Writings). This collection is considered the word of God and a guide for Jewish life and practice. The Christian piibel, often called the Old Testament in relation to the New Testament, encompasses the same Jewish scriptures.

For Christians, the piibel also includes the New Testament, which details the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, the early Christian church, and theological explanations. The New Testament is comprised of the Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, the Epistles (letters), and the Book of Revelation. Both the Old and New Testaments are foundational texts for Christian theology, worship, and ethics. The piibel has been translated into thousands of languages and is one of the most widely distributed books in the world, profoundly influencing global culture, art, and law.
