Question for ya

How much time was there between the testaments? I think the first New Testament book was written around 60 A.D. When was the last Old Testament book written?

General concensus is that the last book in your Old Testament Malichi was written around 400 bc.

Yeah I understand it that way too.
There was apparently, a 400 year silence, then Jesus came.

I do not believe the Bible itself specifies a date it was written, but I came across this link and I thought I would just share it.
This dating may be off. Just another source. God Bless!

- Perhaps we should check with the good folks at the Jerusalem Copyright Office for the dates... as I understand it, they have been issuing copyrights since Moses came down from the mountain the second time, with the stone tablets.

Seriously - Just refer to the following data at Wikipedia for some good basic info:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Testament

and
