  1. Versification (Bible)

    Other uses Versification disambiguation Versification Versification is the process by which a text such as the Bible is divided into Chapters and verses of the Bible chapters and verses . The Bible was originally written without these, and thus versification forms part of the Bible s paratext . History The verses in the Hebrew Bible were added by the Masoretes , while verse numbering came later when Robert Estienne introduced them into his 1551 edition of the Greek New Testament and then into his Bible translations French French translation of the whole Bible. Implications Versification makes particular sections of the Bible easier to find and to memorise. The arbitrary division of the new testament into verses in the 16th century is sometimes mistakenly interpreted as if the placement of this verse numbering system were equivalent to a placement of logical pauses commas or full stops periods .
