How many reading are in the Bible?
There is no set number of readings in general but there are structured 'readings' for topical or thematic purposes.

What are the advantages of translating the Bible?
In Western Europe during the Middle Ages, the Bible was only permitted to be read in Latin. The English king, Henry VIII even had William Tyndale executed for daring to translate the Bible into English. An advantage of translating the Bible into English and other vernacular languages is that it becomes more meaningful, as readers can read and understand the Bible. They can follow services if the Bible is read in English. A perhaps unintended advantage of translating the Bible into vernacular languages is that people can become more informed about what it says, and in some cases begin to discount the literal meaning of the Bible.
Is there chapters taken out of the Bible?
The Bible text is established by scholars engaged in studying the manuscripts that we have from the early church. The idea of chapters being "taken out of the Bible" assumes that we have a single manuscript that is the agreed-on text, and that is simply not true. (There is agreement for about 95% or so of the text, and no doctrinal issues depend on disputed readings). Almost any Bible will have alternate readings for some of the verses listed in the notes at the bottom of the page. Now if you look at John 8 in a modern Bible, you may see a heading note for it or you may see it in parenthesis. This is because the current opinion of most scholars is John 8 is not supported by the best and earliest manuscripts. On the other hand, the story there is very consistent with John's writing and Jesus's life and teachings, so it is included in the Bible but annotated. But the chapter has not been "taken out" of the Bible.
