Whatever version one might have of the Catholic Bible, their contents and general parts are essentially the same. Plus, they should also be divided into two major parts, Old Testament and New Testament.

1. Latin
   Spanish
2. Hebrew
   German

The first part of the Catholic Bible is often referred to as the Hebrew Bible, because majority of its content was written in Hebrew. Some of it was written in the Syrian dialect called Aramaic, a language that later replaced Hebrew, before being replaced by Arabic.

1. Nineveh
   Epistles
2. Scrolls
   Old Testament

The Old Testament usually contains 39 books, but the Catholic Bible counts a collection of around 46 different books that include the deuterocanonical books, which detail the history and the evolution of God’s chosen people. Included in this collection are some laws by which they have to abide, to be called worthy of God’s love. This changes somewhat in the New Testament, with the coming of Christ.

1. Apostles’ Creed
   The Letters
2. New Testament
   Gospels

The second part of the Catholic Bible is known as the New Testament. The word “testament” is used because it pertains to God having a kind of “contract” with His people, and these two major parts of the Bible attest to, and detail, this contract.

1. The pages
   The books
2. The letters
   The verses

The word “Bible” actually pertains to “the books,” which is what it essentially carries as a collection. The word came from the term, “biblion,” which means books, which is also derived from “biblos,” meaning papyrus or scroll, probably on which the original texts were written.

1. Deuteronomy
   Genesis
2. Numbers
   Leviticus

The Book of Genesis contains many original stories that trace the histories of the world, the people in it, and lessons we all need to learn to please God. Many smaller plot patterns utilized in modern storytelling actually come from the stories illustrated in this book, as well as basic characterizations of protagonists and antagonists.

1. Ezekiel
   Sermons
2. Pentateuch
   Scriptures

The first five books of the Old Testament include Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. Collectively, they are known as the Pentateuch, or Torah in Jewish culture.

1. French
   Arabic
2. Latin
   Greek

It is said that the New Testament of the Catholic Bible was originally written in Greek, another ancient civilization’s language. As the world’s cultures evolved during ancient times, the chroniclers of the faith also evolved, as evident in this linguistic difference between the Old Testament and the ​New Testament.

1. Stairway to heaven
   Blessings
2. Prayers
   God’s words

Catholics generally regard the contents of the Bible as the "Word of God," and they take it as their guidelines in living their lives. While the words were written by humans, they believe the writers chronicled God’s words, therefore it should be honored as such.

1. Ten Commandments
   Eight Beatitudes
2. Two Epistles
   Four Gospels

Catholics today closely follow the Ten Commandments, a set of laws that everyone must obey to be a good Catholic, and to earn their rightful spot in heaven. While these laws govern the spiritual rules by which to live, they mostly govern any societal structure’s laws of orderly and harmonious living.

1. The Resurrection
   The Transfiguration
2. The Creation Story
   The Crucifixion

People who believe in the Catholic Bible closely support the idea that the entire world was created according to how it was narrated in the Creation Story in the Book of Genesis. Some who believe in scientific facts also include the evolution theory with this basic religious belief, as they balance out their faith and their knowledge.

1. Joshua
   Gideon
2. Moses
   John The Baptist

Moses, the identified liberator of the chosen people of God, was the known author of the Pentateuch, or the first five books of the Bible. So aside from leading the people out of slavery and conversing with God from time to time, he also had the time to pause and jot down these words that God wanted to share with His people. It's multi-tasking at its best!

1. St. Peter
   Mary Magdalene
2. Virgin Mary
   Jesus Christ

While the Old Testament prepared people about the coming of the Messiah, the New Testament told how that Messiah was prophesied to come, how He arrived, and how He lived and died. Catholics believe that the Messiah is Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

1. Sumerians
   Egyptians
2. Babylonians
   Israelites

God’s identified chosen people of ancient times were the Israelites, the people who comprised the ancient Hebrew nation. The Old Testament details how God had a “contract” with them, which could be traced back to the story of Abraham and his lineage, and highlighted during the story of the Exodus and beyond.

1. Serpent
   Leper
2. Satan
   Jezebel

Several books in the Old Testament cite the existence of Lucifer and his fall from grace, indicating that he was once close to God but was banished because of committing some form of rebellion. In the New Testament, he makes appearances with the name, Satan, particularly in the chronicling of the Christ's temptation in the desert.

1. Good news
   Gibberish
2. Golden papers
   Giant letters

The Bible contains another subset of scriptures known as the Gospels, which are part of the New Testament. Gospel means “the good news.” In this case, referring to the coming of the Messiah and the salvation of believers.

1. Timothy
   Matthew
2. Mark
   Luke

The four Gospels were written by four authors who extensively chronicled the events that involved Jesus Christ. They are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.​ Timothy was not one of them.

1. His youth
   His death
2. His teachings
   His travels

The authors of the four Gospels chronicled the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Their books tell of similar or parallel events involving the Son of God. However, these parallels can be seen mostly in the Books of Matthew, Mark and Luke, as John deviates a bit in his chronicling.

1. Ezra
   Judges
2. Job
   Proverbs

The story of Samson’s unbelievable strength due to his long hair is chronicled in the Book of Judges. There you can read how his enemy army solicited the help of Delilah to seduce the devoted hero, cut his hair and divulge the secret of his strength – which they used to defeat him.

1. Michael
   Raphael
2. Uriel
   Gabriel

The archangel Gabriel is perhaps the most familiar angel figure in the Catholic Bible because he is featured in several important stories to come out of both the Old Testament and the New Testament. Gabriel appeared to Daniel, to John The Baptist’s father, Zacharias, and of course, to Mary to bring her the good news that she would give birth to the Messiah.

1. The Creed
   The Apostles
2. The Tabernacle
   The Covenant

Avid readers of the Bible know that Jesus Christ handpicked 12 men to become His followers, who would later help Him spread the word of His Father as well as His own teachings. These men came to be known as the Apostles.

1. Judas
   Herod
2. Cain
   Lot

Judas Iscariot is one of Jesus Christ’s original apostles, but he later turned out to be a villain and was paid off to betray Christ in exchange for 30 pieces of silver. This led to Jesus' capture and subsequent crucifixion.

1. Ecclesiastes
   Lamentations
2. Psalms
   Micah

The Book of Psalms contains many verses used for worship, often in the form of hymns and songs considered sacred and divine. Today, the word psalm is also interchanged with hymn. Both words ​basically mean the same thing, especially if used in the context of worship.

1. Daniel
   Amos
2. Jonah
   Obadiah

The Book of Daniel mentions the story of Daniel, a believer who was wrongly accused and sentenced to die. He was the one sent to a lion’s den, only to be protected by his faith, and the lions ended up not hurting him one bit.

1. Joel
   Isaiah
2. 1 Samuel
   Chronicles

The heroic defeat of the giant Philistine soldier named Goliath by the boy named David was chronicled in 1 Samuel. This story characterizes how, with faith in God, even an underdog can defeat his enemies, no matter how big those enemies might be.

1. Jesus' death
   Jesus' temptation in the desert
2. Jesus’ crucifixion
   When Jesus walked on water

Matthew, Mark, and John were three of the four Gospels that chronicled different variations of the same miraculous event that proved Jesus was indeed the Son of God. Jesus walked on water, toward his apostles who were on a boat during a storm. Jesus encouraged Peter, who was on the boat, to do the same. Peter did, but his fear led him to almost drown​ until Jesus saved him.

1. 1 Kings
   Ezra
2. Ruth
   Jeremiah

It was in 1 Kings, specifically in chapter 3, where the famous story of King Solomon’s wisdom was chronicled. This pertains to how the king solved the dilemma of two women claiming to be the mother of a baby, and how he decided which one was indeed the child's mother.

1. St. Francis
   St. Peter
2. St. Pius
   St. Mark

St. Peter is one of the 12 Apostles of Jesus Christ, the one whom He said would deny Him after His arrest – which he did. But he was also the one whom Jesus said would have a very special position later on – calling him the rock on which He would build His church.

1. Two
   None
2. It’s a rhetorical question
   It’s a trick question

In the Book of Matthew, Jesus was asked to identify the greatest commandment of them all, and He answered, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.” He also mentioned a second one that encompassed almost all the other laws mentioned in the Ten Commandments, essentially summarizing the ten into two.

1. See
   Love
2. Obey
   Clean

After explaining in the Book of Matthew that the greatest commandment pertains to dedicating our love to God, Jesus also mentioned a second one which pertained to specifically to people. He said “Love your neighbor as you love yourself,” which also simplifies all the detailed regulations specified in the rest of the Ten Commandments.

1. Acts of the Apostles
   Song of Songs
2. Nahum
   Habakkuk

The Acts of the Apostles is the New Testament’s fifth book, which comes after the four Gospels. Sometimes shortened as Acts, this tome chronicles the life of the Apostles after the death of Jesus Christ, narrating how the church was actually built and how the teachings and the messages of Jesus were spread.

1. St. Luke
   St. Matthew
2. St. Paul
   St. Francis

The New Testament has 27 books in all, and 21 of these books were written as epistles. Fourteen of the 21 epistles were written by St. Paul, a former non-believer who was blinded by God and later became a believer.

1. Drafts
   Laws
2. Letters
   Memos

An epistle is a letter written specifically addressing an individual, or in the case of the Bible, a group of people or churches. The majority of the New Testament books are epistles addressed to different groups of churches, containing blessings and notes tailored to the respective recipients.

1. Galatians
   Philippians
2. Revelation
   Colossians

The Book of Revelation is sometimes called the Apocalypse because it narrates how Satan will continue to try to influence humanity, but God and Jesus will triumph over all evil, so everyone should prepare for this imminent clash and the second coming of Jesus Christ. The book details what’s about to come, and is prophetic in tone. It was authored by a writer named John.

1. Carbon paper
   Telephone
2. Morse code
   Printing press

The so-called Gutenberg Bible is one of the very first products to come out of Johannes Gutenberg’s invention, the printing press. This movable type invention of the 1400s enabled a faster mass-produced way of printing manuscripts, making the Bible more accessible to people who didn’t have access to expensive handwritten versions prior to this time.
