ONLY THE BIBLE SURVIVED
More than 3000 years ago,When the writing of the Bible got started, Israel was just one small nation among many in the Middle East. Jehovah was their God,while the surrounding nations had a bewildering variety of gods and goddesses. During that period of time,the Israelites were not the ones to produce religious literature. Other nations top produced written works that reflected their religion and national values.For example Akkadian legend of Gilgamesh from Mesopotamia and the Ra's Shamra epics, written in Ugaritic (a language spoken in what is now called northern Syria) were doubtless very popular. The vast literature of that era also included works such as the Admonitions of IPU _wer and The prophecy of Nefer-rohu in the Egyptian language,hymns to different divinities in Sumerian,and prophetic works in Akkadian.
The Bible is more than just a book. it is a rich library of 66 books,some short and some quite long,containing law,prophecy, history, poetry,counsel,and much more. Centuries before the birth of Christ,the first 39 of these books were written-mostly in the Hebrew language- by faithful Jews,or Israelites.This part is often called the Old Testament. The last 27 books were written in Greek by Christians and are widely known as the New Testament. According to the international evidence and the most ancient traditions,these 66 books were written over a period of about 1,600 years,beginning when Egypt was a dominant power and ending when Rome was mistress of the world

The Bible’s answer
The Bible itself provides many of the keys to understanding it. Regardless of your background, God’s message in the Bible “is not too difficult for you, nor is it far away.”—Deuteronomy 30:11.
Keys to understanding the Bible
Have the right attitude. Accept the Bible as God’s Word. Be humble, since God opposes the proud. (1 Thessalonians 2:13; James 4:6) However, avoid blind faith—God wants you to use your “power of reason.”—Romans 12:1, 2.
Pray for wisdom. “Do not lean upon your own understanding,” the Bible says at Proverbs 3:5. Instead, “keep on asking God” for wisdom in understanding the Bible.—James 1:5.
Be consistent. You will benefit much more from Bible study if you do it regularly rather than sporadically.—Joshua 1:8.
Study by topic. A topical study, in which you analyze what the Bible says about a particular topic or subject, is an effective way to learn what the Scriptures teach. Start with “the beginning lessons,” as it were, and then “go forward to more mature (advanced) teaching.” (Hebrews 6:1, 2, Easy-to-Read Version) You’ll find that you can compare scripture with scripture and learn that various parts of the Bible explain each other, even the parts that are “hard to understand.”—2 Peter 3:16.
Get help from others. The Bible encourages us to accept help from others who understand the Bible. (Acts 8:30, 31) Jehovah’s Witnesses offer a free Bible study program. Like the early Christians, they use Scriptural references to help others discern what the Bible really teaches.—Acts 17:2, 3.
Things you don’t need
High intellect or education. Jesus’ 12 apostles understood the Scriptures and taught them to others, even though the apostles were considered by some to be “unlettered and ordinary.”—Acts 4:13.
Money. You can learn what the Bible teaches without cost. Jesus told his disciples: “You received free, give free.”—Matthew 10:8.

The Bible’s answer
Many Bible writers state that God directed what they wrote. Note these examples:
King David: “The spirit of Jehovah it was that spoke by me, and his word was upon my tongue.”—2 Samuel 23:1, 2.
The prophet Isaiah: “This is what the Sovereign Lord, Jehovah of armies, has said.”—Isaiah 22:15.
The apostle John: “A revelation by Jesus Christ, which God gave him.”—Revelation 1:1.
The truth about Easter
They had every change to enter into Noahs ark but ignored because they have not seen a pouring of a rain in their time
Does the Bible contain myth? Or it is accurate
You would expect God’s Word to be unique, and the Bible is. Billions of copies of it have been printed in hundreds of languages. The wisdom in the Bible has the power to change people for the better.—Read 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Timothy 3:16.
We know that the Bible is from God because it accurately foretells the future. No man can do that on his own. Consider, for example, the book of Isaiah. A copy of it made over a century before Jesus’ birth was found in a cave near the Dead Sea. It says that the city of Babylon would become uninhabited. That first came true many years after Jesus’ earthly ministry.—Read Isaiah 13:19, 20; 2 Peter 1:20, 21.
