Some believe that The Bible is the word of God because it was literally told to the authors by God himself, and therefore is infallible. Others believe that the Bible is the word of God because it was inspired by God, although the books were the work of men, and although it can contain errors of history and science, it is infallible on matters of faith.

What do some people mean when they say that the Bible is the word of God?

AnswerSome believe that the Bible, or at least parts of it, were personally dictated by God, and so is the word of God. For example, those who believe that Moses wrote the Book of Genesis are aware that Moses could not possibly have known about many of the events described in the book. Some therefore say that God told Moses exactly what to write.In other cases, some believe that the Bible was at least inspired by God, meaning that the Bible was written by people in their own words, but that what they wrote could not have contained any error.

What is the translation for God of the Bible in Arabic... I mean is God of the Christians translated as Allah when people translate the Bible to Arabic language?

Generally, yes. "Allah" is a contraction of the Arabic words, "al- Ilah," meaning "the God." The use of the definite article (the) is common in Arabic. Christian Arabs say "Allah" and mean God. Of course, just using the same word doesn't mean there is common understanding. The Hindi/Urdu word for God is "Ram," but the personality of Ram is not that of the God of the Bible. The Lakota name Wakan Tanka is sometimes translated as "God," but this doesn't imply the same understanding either.
