Of Books, Parchments and Scrolls
The Scriptures have been in a book ever since Adam started to record history, and have rarely been outside of a book since, for 6,000 years. The word "book" appears about 180 times in Scripture, from Genesis through to Revelation, whereas the word "scroll" appears only twice, "parchment" only one lonely time, "roll" several times, and means a part of a book, not a lone piece of paper at all, and it is mostly in a state of being an original, or an original "resurrected" (a copy) by God Himself after it was destroyed, to demonstrate His power and sovereignty over His Word.
