Shortest Chapter Extra

With just two verses and sixteen words in Hebrew, Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter in the Bible. Interestingly, it is also the middle chapter of the Bible. And is followed closely by the longest chapter in the Bible - Psalm 119.

Longest Word Extra

The longest word in the Bible is Maher-shalal-hash-baz - the name given to Isaiah’s son. It is also the full name of actor Mahershala Ali.

Shortest Book Extra

It’s close. But 3 John (219 words) narrowly edges out 2 John (245 words) for the shortest book in the Bible by word count in its original language.
