The Book of Life with Study Questions. The Bible’s usages of “Book of Life” The Holy Scripture uses the term “book of life” eight times, once in the Old Testament, seven in the New Testament. Paul and John pick up the term from the Old Testament and further refine its meaning in the New Testament.
Why the Book of Life? God is a God of order and structure. He gives us physical figures and patterns for things that are to be found in the spiritual or heavenly realm (Heb. 9:9,23). These types help us understand God and the wonder of His great plan and purpose. This leads us to what God's Book of Life is. First,
A number of passages in the Bible refer to a book called “the book of life,” a figurative expression that originated from the ancient customs of (a) keeping various kinds of records like genealogical records (Neh. 7:5, 64; 12:22, 23) and of (b) registering citizens for numerous purposes (Jer. 22:30; Ezek. 13:9).
21 Αυγ 2014 · The Scriptures call the Book of Life the Lamb’s Book of Life (Revelation 13.8, 21.27). Thus, it is the Lord Jesus Christ’s book. He is the source of all life (John 1.4) and He gives life to whomever His wishes (John 5.21). All judgment is under His authority (John 5.22; Revelation 1.17-18).
One is called “the book of life”; the other, “the Lamb’s book of life”. These are the books in which are entered the names of those who have received eternal life. Only (in Rev. 21:27), is this referred to as the Lamb’s book of life in the King James Version of the bible.
This book is located in heaven (Luke 10:20) and is called “Your [God’s] book, which you have written” (Exod 32:32), the “book of life” (Ps 69:28; Phil 4:3), and the “book of the Lamb” (Rev 17:8). It is also referred to through the use of the singular, “the book” (Dan 12:1).
