Where Bible Verse and Chapter Numbers Originated
Early Hebrew and Greek manuscripts had no verse or chapter divisions and even spaces between words were absent. Jewish scholars introduced early Hebrew divisions about 700 years ago, and Robert Stephens popularized chapter and verse numbering around 1545. The Geneva Bible’s mid sixteenth century edition adopted these divisions, though not always aligning with natural groupings. Overall, the modern system aids reading and locating passages.
