The Bible is a very ancient book, with its roots in pre-history. The first five books - the Books of Moses - were written down some 3500 years ago, and they contain stories that were from even older books, and from oral traditions that stretch much further back in time.
Christians, Jews, and Muslims regard all or parts of the Bible as sacred texts, with layers of deeper inner meaning that are timeless.
