The Bible is a collection of books, poetry and letters that were written over hundreds of years. The Old Testament books were written in Hebrew and compiled into a collection before the time of Christ. A small amount of the book of Daniel in the Old Testament was written in Aramaic. The New Testament books were written after the resurrection of Jesus in an ancient form of Greek known as Koine Greek. Over the following centuries these books were compiled into the single collection that makes up today's Bible.

The New Testament books were written after the resurrection of Jesus in an ancient form of Greek known as Koine Greek. Over the following centuries these books were compiled into the single collection that makes up today's Bible. In the first few centuries after Christ the Bible was translated into some other ancient languages (for example Latin) but it wasn't until the Protestant Reformation that widespread translation of the Bible into many languages (such as German and English) really began to occur. In recent years there has been lots of activity in translating the Bible into many of the minor languages of the world.
