main.rb
bible_books = [

  "Exodus",
  "Leviticus",
  "Numbers",
  "Deuteronomy",
  "Joshua",
  "Judges",
  "Ruth",
  "1 Samuel",
  "2 Samuel",
  "1 Kings",
  "2 Kings",
  "1 Chronicles",
  "2 Chronicles",
  "Ezra",
  "Nehemiah",
  "Esther",
  "Job",
  "Psalm",
  "Proverbs",
  "Ecclesiastes",
  "Song of Solomon",
  "Isaiah",
  "Jeremiah",
  "Lamentations",
  "Ezekiel",
  "Daniel",
  "Hosea",
  "Joel",
  "Amos",
  "Obadiah",
  "Jonah",
  "Micah",
  "Nahum",
  "Habakkuk",
  "Zephaniah",
  "Haggai",
  "Zechariah",
  "Malachi",
  "Matthew",
  "Mark",
  "Luke",
  "John",
  "Acts",
  "Romans",
  "1 Corinthians",
  "2 Corinthians",
  "Galatians",
  "Ephesians",
  "Philippians",
  "Colossians",
  "1 Thessalonians",
  "2 Thessalonians",
  "1 Timothy",
  "2 Timothy",
  "Titus",
  "Philemon",
  "Hebrews",
  "James",
  "1 Peter",
  "2 Peter",
  "1 John",

This creates an array named bible_books containing all 66 books of the Bible, in order. You can access individual books by their index in the array, starting with 0 for Genesis. For example, to get the third book of the Bible (Leviticus), you can use:


main.rb
puts bible_books[2] #=> "Leviticus"
