The Bible was divided into chapters by Stephen Langton about A.D. 1228.
The Old Testament was divided into verses by R. Nathan in A.D. 1448 and The New Testament by Robert Stephanus in A.D. 1551.
The entire Bible divided into chapters and verses first appeared in the Geneva Bible of 1560.
My point?
It wasn't always in the chapters and verses we now have.
2 Peter 1:21
For the prophecy came
not in old time by the will of man:
but holy men of God spake
as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
1 Corinthians 2:13
Which things also we speak,
not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth,
but which the Holy Ghost teacheth;
comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
Love you Lucy.
