This printed Bible in Arabic contains a 39-book Old Testament and 27-book New Testament, as found in the standard Protestant tradition. In actuality, the Coptic biblical canon includes more books in the Old Testament, similar to other Catholic and Orthodox traditions, and the New Testament books are in a different order. There is currently no published version of the Bible that contains all canonical works of the Coptic Orthodox Church.
