“The Volume of the Book” Begins on Word #390270 of the Bible

Summary

The Bible is one book, and its volume consists of 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament. In Psalm 40:7, we find the phrase “the volume of the book” starting on the 390,270th word of the Bible. This verse is actually Jesus Christ speaking of the Old & New Testaments as expounded in Hebrews 10 where it is quoted as a proof-text for the first and the second covenants:

5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;
9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:5-10

Not only is “the volume of the book” the 390,270th word of the Bible, Psalms and Hebrews are exactly 39 / 27 books apart.

Psalms + 39 books = Hebrews
Hebrews + 27 books = Psalms (circling around the Bible)

And while it’s not as significant, it is worth noting that Psalms 40:7 is (319 x 27) verses from Matthew 1:1, the first verse of the New Testament.
