The Bible consists of certain sacred scriptures of Judaism (Old Testament) and Christianity (New Testament). A major difference is that the Christian Bible includes both the Old and the New Testaments, while the Jewish or Hebrew Bible excludes the New Testament.

There are numerous controversies regarding the texts, exact contents, and their interpretations. It is considered politically correct to criticize or satirize Christianity, including the Bible, but it is considered politically incorrect to criticize or satirize Judaism, including later religious texts such as the Talmud, despite building on the Hebrew Bible.
