I don't know what else they may have added to it in 2000 years, but the core of the Hebrew Bible is only 5 chapters long. Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. They don't use any of the other chapters that Christian bibles have. Its still cool, just not as cool as I was thinking at first.

You are incorrect the Hebrew Bible consists of 39 books, what you are confusing it with is the Tanakh, of which there are 3 parts the Torah (which is the first 5 books you mentioned,) the Nevi'ium (all the prophet books, and the Ketivum (the writings, Psalms, proverbs and the like.)

 

It's still a interesting feat.
