vocabulary简明 Scripture is a sacred religious text. It usually refers to the Christian Bible, but it can refer to other religions' texts as well.
vocabulary扩展 The noun scripture is most often used for specifically Christian writing, and it's often capitalized. However, it can refer to any religion's sacred writing: "Hindu scripture is written on the walls of the temple." In the 1300s, scripture sometimes meant simply "writing," though it more often referred to sacred words, especially in the Christian Bible. Its root word is the Latin script, or "writing."
