Ecumenic version of the bible

[librarius_qui]

Does anyone know when the bible was mixed up? I like the Ecumenic division, because it considers the Jewish order of the scriptures ...

What do you mean by mixed up? I've studied the Textual Criticism of the Bible that go back to the Latin version of Scriptures in the 1500 AD. As far as I know, there was only the Latin and the Hebrew/Greek versions (which were not used by the Catholic Church). The particular order of Scripture (I would bet) would in the least go back to 1228 AD when Cardinal Hugo added the chapter divisions...(the verse divisions came about by Robert Stevens in 1551...I believe). The Bible was put together using some 5,000 texts. However, I do not know what decided the order in which they were put.

How does the ecumenic version order the Scriptures?

According to tradition or according to what we know?

By tradition the Jewish Bible was assembled, around 400 BCE http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_of_the_Great_Assembly, by what we know, it's estimated at being around 200BCE to 200 CE, with parts coming together gradually.

As for a division, debate has always been central to the Jewish tradition. So different scholars and teachers would have different disciples, but the lack of an authorative council after the fall of the San'Hadrin would probably be the beginning of a ecumenism.

As for Christianity, I can't see it as ever being that solidified.
