Biblical texts are the sacred writings of Judaism and Christianity, consisting of various books that convey religious teachings, history, poetry, and laws. The Bible is divided into two main sections: the Old Testament, which includes texts sacred to both religions, and the New Testament, which focuses on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ and the early Christian community. These texts were written over many centuries by different authors in various historical and cultural contexts. They are considered by believers to be divinely inspired and serve as a guide for faith, morality, and practice in the lives of millions around the world.
