An amazing history of the Bible.

This may seem a laborious study unless you are an archeologist and historian, but it is well worth a read/listen for anyone who is a Christian just to know how the Bible has come down to us. We have it all in spite of war, persecution, language and time. Even now we have many digital versions to enjoy reading.
