First and more noticeable is that there are two books to the bible, the Old and the New Testaments. The one tells of the creation and the story up till the birth of Christ. The other tells of Christs dealing with his fellow men. The Old Testament lived by the Law of Moses and of Abraham, while the New Testament lived by the Higher Law, Christ himself being that law.

Second the compilers of the testaments only had events which would, in their wisdom, fit into a certain place so that all would run as smoothly as possible. Though Revelation is the last book it does not mean that it was the last to be written. Its content warranted it being placed there.

The Bible is divided into two main sections: the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old Testament contains stories, laws, poetry, and prophecies from before the birth of Jesus, while the New Testament focuses on the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Each section is further divided into books, chapters, and verses for easier navigation and reference.
