Roman Numerals
Roman numerals are often used for the numbered books of the Bible. For example, Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians may be written as "I Corinthians", using the Roman numeral "I" rather than the Arabic numeral "1". The Christian Writer's Manual of Style recommends using Arabic numerals for numbered books, as in "2 Corinthians" rather than "II Corinthians".
