Bible Study

It is very important to study the Bible on a regular basis.
Christ "expounded unto them in all the Scriptures of the things concerning Himself" Luke 24:25 to 27.
and they believed.
On another occasion He said  "If they hear not Moses and the Prophets neither will they be persuaded though one rose from the dead." Luke 16: 31.

Did they ever Burn Bibles????

You bet!!!
As Jehoiakim, king of Judah and the princes under King Zedekiah showed their contempt for God by burning the writings of Jeremiah. and confining the prophet in a dungeon so now men sought to stem the rising tide of reform by burning the Bible and its translators!

Bible burning was inaugurated in England by the destruction of copies of the Antwerp edition of Tyndales"s New Testament, at St. Paul's Cross London in 1527 followed by the burning of a second edition in 1530.

when the MAN comes around

Old Testament

Was first written in Hebrew upon scrolls or rolls of parchment paper.
Theses were later translated into Greek, the oldest translation being known as the Septuagint of "Version of the Seventy" made at Alexandria , for the Alexadrian Library, by a company of seventy learned Jews under the patronage of Ptolemy Philadelphia around 285 BC.
The original order came from none other than Alexander the Great who when visiting Jerusalem in 332 BC learned of the prophecy in Daniel that predicted Grecia was to overthrow the Persian Kingdom.

This was the version in common use in Christ's time.

See Josephus's Antiquities of the Jews book 11 chapter 8 par 5.
