Default Re: Why Are There No "New" Books Of The Bible?

"I would suggest that God would know when to call his book "done".

But God didn't write it... humans did.

One of the best things anyone can do, is to have a Concordance to the Bible in their personal library. Then you can see the original Hebrew words, and decide for yourself what the interpretation should be.

I can remember 30 years ago when I confirmed for myself that most of the references in the book of Genesis of 'God', and other scriptures, were really "Gods", plural.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elohim "Elohim (אֱלוֹהִים , אלהים ) is a Hebrew word which expresses concepts of divinity. It is apparently related to the Hebrew word ēl, though morphologically it consists of the Hebrew word Eloah (אלוה) with a plural suffix."
