Holy Bible - Summary of the Books of the Bible

The Books of the Bible list below is a comparison of Jewish and Christian Bibles, and illustrates the differences between Jewish, Protestant and Catholic Bibles. In the Protestant Bible, Martin Luther removed the 7 Catholic canonical books shown in red below. Each row shows the book correspondence between the Old Testament versions. The King James Old testament order of books is used. Jews do not recognize the New Testament. Other holy books are shown, including the apocrypha, antilegomena, and pseudepigrapha.
