In Judaism and Christianity, the Book of Life (Biblical Hebrew: ספר החיים, romanized: Sefer HaḤayyim; Ancient Greek: βιβλίον τῆς ζωῆς, romanized: Biblíon tēs Zōēs; Arabic: سفر الحياة, romanized: Sifr al-Ḥayā) is a book in which God records—or will record in the future—the names of every person who is destined for Heaven and the world to come.
