How many Bibles have been "inspired" by: God to have been written?
357515
Only the original documents themselves have been what we call "Inspired" by God.  Translations have been written with God's guidance.

Your question also begs a more basic question:  regardless of version, timing, or translation, human beings wrote the contents of, and chose and assembled, the texts that were called The Bible.  (Same with the Talmud, and the Koran.)  So it's reasonable to ask, why do so many believe it to be God's word?  I mean, it could be.  But why do people today so strongly believe it to be so, with such certainty?  When all they have is other people's word for it?  It is indeed remarkable, and hard to understand.

A modern analysis using Microsoft Word 2000 yields a count 31,102 verses for the King James Version.\n\nClick this link for other interesting facts from Wikipedia about the Bible.  This stuff is kinda cool.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible#Bible_versions_and_translations

Your concept of the books of the bible are totally wrong.\nThe bible writers were chosen by God and their writings weren't just added together.\nThe library as we know it, now bound together was written over nearly 6 thousand years.\nYou cannot make a holy man of yourself. If not inspired of God, nothing will happen. You would be looked on today as a KOOK and ignored

God didn't write the Bible. Men did, and at the time it was written, they thought the Earth was flat and that the Universe revolved around the Earth.

"29. How many languages has the Bible been translated into?\nThe Holy Bible has been translated into 2,018 languages, with countless more partial translations, and audio translations (for unwritten languages). (This is an enormous amount of translations. In comparison, Shakespeare, considered by many to be the master writer of the English language, has only been translated into 50 languages.)"

The bible, was put together from a group of writings that a bunch of men did a long time ago, Someone got smart and decided to put it together into 1 book, the only bad thing is they LEFT OUT alot of things as well. They should have left it alone and let us decide what we felt we needed to know.

Man created god. In our own image. And wrote the bible as well.

Genesis was not written by Moses.  The First Book of the Bible is an acount of the beginings of the earth and the origins of mankind.\nMostly likely it is based upon earlier mythology, other cultural traditions prior to what has become known as the Judeo- Christian tradition.\nThe Pentauch - the five books of Moses are merely a reference point, not an acknowledge of Moses's specific role in documenting these mythological events and creation stories.

According to the bible, God has participated in wars.  So he must be a fan.

This is completely unknowable.\nI believe that Norse Gods numbered about a dozen, Egyption were more than a dozen, Greek were considerably more than a dozen.  Hindu has over a thousand documented Gods.  Depending on the sect, Buddhism has one, several, or no Gods.\n\nThe Hebrew, Christian, Mormon, and Muslim Gods can be reliably counted as one since all these religions sprouted from eachother.\n\nI would have to say a rough estimate of 1500 to 2000, but an actual number is completely unknowable when you consider the number of either long dead or alive but undocumented religions.

God didn't write the bible. It was written by man, way after Christ lived.\n\nI would take what is written in the bible with a grain of salt. There are tons of contradictory things written in there, and since it wasn't written by God himself, you have to wonder if some of their "human" agendas got in there...

They must have been inspired, these translators!\n\n\nI read in ANOTHER famous book once about people who pray to god:  Why? (pray) Who are YOU to Teach, and He to Learn?\n\nGood thoughts, these

In Genesis 1:26, God said, "let us make people in our image..."\n\nMan didn't create God by writing the bible.  The bible was litterally God-breathed, or inspired by God.

There are four versions, and I mean by "version" accepted cannon and not translations because obviously there are thousands of those, of what people refer to as the "Bible". The Catholic version, which has 73 books in it. The Protestant version, which has 66 books in it. The Coptic version, which has 75 books in it. And the Jewish version, which has 49 books in it. These four versions cover two specific faiths, Christianism and Judaism. Of all those books NOT ONE original document or even a known trustwothy COPY of an original document exists. Of the five major world monotheistic faiths (Christianism, Islam, Judaism, Bahai, and Sikh) only ONE can rightly claim and prove via historical documentation, that in turn can be proved correct, that its Holy Book has never been altered or ammended. And that faith is Islam. The Koran is a beautiful Holy Book, filled with light and wisdom. I own various translations and at least one copy in Arabic (true Koran) that was a gift to me from the Saudi Arabian Embassy. I've read the Koran more than any other religious text. I am not Muslim. BUT ... I am honest with myself and others. A lack of honesty and open mindedness on my part would in no way alter the Truth. And the Truth is that Holy Koran IS the ONLY uncorrupted religious text in existance today. People of faith need to be honest enough to admit that and open minded enough to read it, and THAT with an open mind. They are not being fair to THEMSELVES when they make a decision about a thing without first having investigated it. ~ Peace & Blessings ~
