Lest anyone dispute that the Bible is not the inspired Word of God but rather the direct and dictated Word of God, let us consider the uniqueness of the 66 books of the Bible.

Why do the different books of the Bible use different languages (e.g., Greek, Hebrew) and different vocabularies? Why are the styles of books like Proverbs and Chronicles so different from one another?

The way in which these people recorded their encounters with God bears the indelible stamp of their place in time, their culture, and their individual personalities. Aaron R. Yilmaz
