The Bible (Gutenberg)

The Bible, reproduced by Johannes Gutenberg’s printing press around 1455, is a collection of sacred texts central to Christianity. It includes religious stories, teachings, laws, poetry, and history written over centuries by various authors. The printing press made these texts widely available, transforming how people accessed spiritual guidance and knowledge, and helping Christianity spread across the world. The Gutenberg Bible was the first major book printed using movable type, marking a significant moment in making religious and literary works accessible to many, fostering literacy, learning, and cultural development.
