Our Bible...

contains 810,697 words. This is about four times as many as are found in a book of average length. Although so long a book and dealing with the greatest theme that can engage the mind of man, its vocabulary is singularly limited.

Only 6,000 different words are used; which is very small compared to the 20,000 employed by Shakespeare in writing his plays. Not only is the vocabulary limited, but the average word in the Bible contains but five letters.

Many of these short words in the Bible are, however, full of the deepest meaning and are worthy of earnest study. Such as these short five-letter words: grace, peace, faith, saved, serve, glory, and Jesus.

Your own version...

You are writing a Gospel,
   A chapter each day,
By deeds that you do,
   By words that you say.
Men read what you write,
   Whether faithless or true;
Say, what is the Gospel
   According to YOU?

The OLD and the NEW (Bible)

The NEW is in the OLD contained;
The OLD is in the NEW explained;
The NEW is in the OLD concealed;
The OLD is in the NEW revealed.
