Definition: In Christian theology, "scripture" means that which God has written in His holy book, or inspired law (e.g., the Bible). The Bible is a collection of 26 books written in different languages in approximately 1500 years after Jesus Christ's death and resurrection. The first section of the Bible is called Deuteronomy. This section contains instructions for living God's will for humanity. It consists of ten books: Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Kings, Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Tobit, Esther and Parables. Scripture includes the Old Testament (106 chapters) and the New Testament (26 books). The Old Testament contains law and rules given by God to Israel. It includes books such as Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Patriarchs, Abraham and Isaac, Jacob, Ruth, Samuel, Kings and Chronicles. The New Testament is a collection of 14 books written in Greek and Latin languages that contains the inspired teachings of Jesus Christ. In summary, scripture refers to all the ancient texts written by God for His people, including law and rules given during their history as well as His word revealed through various revelations from God Himself.
