Early Bible Scrolls

In Christian circles many religious legends have evolved. I call them legends because they originated from someplace and they seem to perpetuate themselves, even though they are not true. One of these legends is who wrote the Bible. There is a fundamental misunderstanding as to who wrote the Bible, who actually was instrumental in the hand of the Almighty God to hear the words and to pen the words on scrolls which were later transferred over to book form. It is extremely important to understand this.

Starting in Isaiah 9:8

"The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel," the word, the Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath alighted upon Israel."

In other words, Israel heard the Word of God in the Old Testament. Now the legend that I'm referring to that you hear from pulpits, from televangelists, from Christians everywhere, and the legend is that the Jews wrote the Bible.
