question
12: When and by whom was the Bible
divided in chapters and verses?
answer: Stephen
Langton (about 1150 – 9 July 1228), Archbishop of Canterbury, divided the
Bible into chapters and verses.
comments: Cardinal Hugo de Sancto Caro is also known to
have made a systematic division of the Bible (between 1244 and 1248). However, it is Stephen Langton’s arrangement
of the chapters that remains in use today.
