Who created the Bible? This is a question that has puzzled scholars for centuries. The Bible is a compilation of 66 different books, written by many different authors over a period of 1500 years. How could one book have so many writers? In this blog post, we will explore the stories of biblical writers and learn about their backgrounds and motivations for writing Scripture.
Books of the Bible

Genesis
Moses was the writer of the first book of the Bible, Genesis. Moses was a Jewish man who was born in Egypt and raised as a prince. He fled Egypt after killing an Egyptian man who was beating a Hebrew slave. After living in the desert for 40 years, Moses had a vision from God in which he was instructed to lead the Hebrew people out of slavery in Egypt. Moses led the Hebrews on a miraculous journey through the desert, during which they received the Ten Commandments from God. After 40 years of wandering, the Hebrews finally arrived in the Promised Land of Canaan.
Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy
Moses was also the writer of the next four books of the Bible (Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy). These books tell the story of the Hebrews’ time in the desert and their eventual conquest of Canaan.
Joshua
You guessed it, Joshua was the writer of the book of Joshua. Joshua was a military leader who succeeded Moses as the leader of the Hebrew people. He led the Hebrews in their conquest of Canaan, defeating many powerful enemies along the way.
Judges
An unknown author, however, was the writer of the book of Judges. This book tells the story of how the Hebrews settled in Canaan and struggled to maintain their faithfulness to God.
Ruth, First Samuel, Second Samuel, First Kings, and Second Kings
Samuel, Nathan, and Gad were the writers of the next five books of the Bible (Ruth, First Samuel, Second Samuel, First Kings, and Second Kings). These books tell the story of the Hebrew monarchy, from its humble beginnings with Saul and David to its eventual downfall under the wicked King Ahab.
Esther
Similar to the book of Judges, an unknown author was the writer of the book of Esther. This book tells the story of how a Jewish girl named Esther saved her people from extermination.
Job
An unknown author was the writer of the book of Job. This book is a story about a man named Job who lost everything he had but was still faithful to God despite his suffering.
Revelation
Apostle John was the writer of the final book of the Bible, Revelation. John was one of Jesus’ closest disciples, and he was the writer of this book while he was in exile on the island of Patmos. Revelation is a prophetic book that tells the story of how God will ultimately triumph over evil and establish His kingdom on earth.
