Is the bible the word of God or men?

Hello, TheTruth: This would indeed be powerful evidence for the veracity of the Bible. However, since both the prediction and the fulfillment are found in the Bible, with no outside evidence in corroboration, this doesn't constitute sound evidence.Note also that, in many of your examples, both the prediction and the fulfillment occurred before the earliest known manuscripts of the Bible by several hundred years (this is true of most of your Old Testament examples but I haven't looked into your New Testament examples yet).So, if the Bible is the word of man, the whole thing could be a lie, a fable or a story. And, archaeology and other studies have yet to verify the biblical account of many of these things.
