The Bible has 70 Books -- 65 Books without Psalms and 5 Books of Psalms. In sum is this 70 Books. 70 is a full-number.

I found while visiting Ghana, in western Africa that one village had 66 dieties (gods) the same amount as books in the Bible. The village had a fetish priest (what once was called a witch doctor) who told me (through a translater) that he did indeed believe in the God of the Bible as the creator of heaven and earth, but that their gods were gods of vengeance, prosperity, fertility, healing, death, etc. Etc. He proudly told me of their many gods who seemed to "specialize" in one thing. How amazing is it as Christians that our one God specializes in everything good! The people in that village were ruled by fear...how sad not to know our living God of love.
