Excerpt from Bible Literature; An Introductory View of the Bible and Its Books: For the General Reader, and Sixth Grade Text-Book for Schools and Colleges In order to understand the Bible as a whole, and as its writers intended it to be read, long before the various books were separated into - chapters and verses, it is necessary to have some clear knowledge of each one of the books of the Old and the New Testament.
