The Bible is a huge library of religious texts that are incredibly important to both Judaism and Christianity. The Old Testament contains the original Hebrew scriptures, which were written over a period of several hundred years, starting around 1200 BC. The New Testament contains texts written by Christians in the first century AD. These texts are incredibly important to both faiths and provide a wealth of religious and spiritual guidance.<\/p>\n

The question of which books should be included in the Bible was eventually taken up by Church councils. At the Council of Hippo, held in north Africa in AD 393, a group of church leaders recognized a list of books that they believed to be scripture. Later, the Council of Carthage affirmed that decision in AD 397.<\/p>\n
