There
are a total of 1189 chapters in the King James Version of the Bible. The shortest chapter in the
Bible is Psalm 117 - only two verses. The longest chapter in the Bible
is Psalm 119 - 176 verses.
Sandwiched
between the shortest and longest chapters of the Bible is Psalm 118.
There are 594 chapters before Psalm 118 and 594 chapters after Psalm 118
making it the Center Chapter of the Bible. 594 + 594 = 1188 chapters. Now place a semi-colon between 118:8 and it creates the center verse in the Bible - Psalm 118:8
Grab your Bible and read what the LORD God placed in the center of the Bible so you would find it hiding in plain sight.
When
the translators and publishers numbered the chapters and verses of the
Bible, what are the odds of Psalm 118 would be the center chapter of the
Bible?
To me, this is just another proof that the Bible is an inspired book that no human mind could conceive.
There are three great truths, 1st, There is a Creator God; 2nd, He has spoken to us through the Bible; 3rd, He means what He says.

It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

The Catholic Bible has 1330 chapters so the middle verse is different. Psalm 103:1-2 are the middle verses.
The purpose of this post is to get people to think about what they believe and why they believe it, not debate who's right or wrong. To learn the revealed truth of God we must know and understand the true meaning of the words God inspired to be written. Use Strong's Concordance to check the original word before it was translated. Do your own research, make up your own mind, rely on the Holy Spirit to guide you.
