New Testament English

The books of the Bible were written at different times by different authors over a period of approximately 1,500 years from around 1400 BC through 90 AD. The Old Testament was written in Biblical Hebrew, excluding the books written during "the Chaldean captivity" such as Daniel and Ezra which were written in "Biblical Aramaic" during the "Chaldean captivity". Many of the books of the Old Testament bear the names of the prophets who authored them. Moses compiled the earlier parts of Genesis and directly authored the remaining portion.

Koontz. ------ “The teaching of the Lord falls into five clear discourses marked off by Matthew’s repetition of “after Jesus finished these words,” (7:28, 11:1, 13:53, 19:1) with the final discourse ending, “after Jesus finished all these words” (26:1).
