Bible Chapters, Facts


Bible Chapters, Facts · One Chapter Books and Up to Four Chapter Books

OT :
50 + 40 + 27 + 36 + 34 + 24 + 21 + 04 + 31 + 24 + 22 + 25 + 29 + 36 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 16 + 16 + 42 + 31 + 12 + 08 + 19 + 51 + 66 + 52 + CL + 05 + 06 + 48 + 14 + 14 + 03 + 09 + 01 + 04 + 07 + 03 + 03 + 03 + 02 + 14 + 04 + 16 + 15 = 924

NT :
28 + 16 + 24 + 21 + 28 + 16 + 16 + 13 + 06 + 06 + 04 + 04 + 05 + 03 + 06 + 04 + 03 + 01 + 13 + 05 + 05 + 03 + 05 + 01 + 01 + 01 + 22 = 260

OT + NT :
924 + 260 = 1184


1184 - 680 (history) = 504 (not history)

I did an earlier calculation on how much of the Bible is history. It added up to 680 chapters.

Prophecy
66 + 52 + 6 + 48 + 7 + 14 + 3 + 9 + 1 + 7 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 14 + 4 + 22 = 264

Seven of these are from Daniel, making the count for historic chapter 7 lower, 673 instead of 680.
