"Christian scrpture" is a bit vague. The firat five books of the Old Testament is collectively called the pentatuech, made up of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. The first four books of the New Testament are called the gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
The new testament is made of books mainly by the apostles and the rest are books written by Paul.
The first five books of the Jewish bible are Genesis Exodus Leviticus Numbers and Dueteronomy.________ Please note that the term 'Old Testament' is offensive to Jews as we do not believe in the 'New Testament'. The Jewish Bible is called the Tanach and the five books of Moshe are called the Torah.
Yes, in translation. However, there are some important differences. One difference is that the Jewish Bible (the Tanakh) is only in the original Hebrew. Any translation, whether done by Jews or Gentiles, is, at best, no more than an indication of what the Tanakh is saying. The translations leave out all or most of the Hebrew Bible's accompanying oral tradition, its traditional musical chant (cantillation, which provides punctuation and emotion), and the fact that many verses teach us a number of things. Another difference is that the Christian Old Testament may contain a few books that are not in the Tanakh (such as the books of Judith and Sirach [and others] which are in the Catholic O.T.).
The old testament is made of the history of the Jews and the prophecies of the prophets , and life of the Jews under king.
It didn't get "added" - the Bible is made up of the old Jewish books (what we call the Old Testament) and the books which concern Christ and the works and writings of his apostles. (what we call the New Testament). So there was no "Bible" before the New Testament.
The Jewish/Hebrew Bible is called the Tanach and is made up of three sections: Torah (Teachings), Nevi'im (Prophets), and K'tuvim (Writings). The Christian Old Testament was based on the whole of the Tanach, however, it was thoroughly altered to support the teachings of Christianity.
