The book of books is called the Bible. It is a book and yet it has a whole library in it. No other book has been so widely used and translated so often. It records what the people of Israel and the Christian churches perceived and believed to be the voice and presence of God. It is the unifying bond of all Christian churches. Their cultural power is invaluable: Numerous writers, composers, painters and master builders were inspired by the biblical texts. Human rights and human dignity largely owe their present significance to the biblical belief in the image of God as a god. Thus, the traditions of the Old and New Testaments became a World Heritage of Humanity.
