Scripture Through History: From the Patriarchs to the Protestant Revolt
Since the Bible is a primary source of God’s revelation, it is vital that we understand the Bible’s origins; how, when, where and by whom the various writings were selected and compiled into the canon of Scripture held and venerated by the Catholic Church. For all Catholics in submission to the authority of the Holy See, the Bible comprises 46 Old Testament and 27 New Testament books. Although Protestants hold to the same number of New Testament books, they maintain an Old Testament list of only 39 books. How did this difference come about? Did the Catholic Church add seven books to their canon, or did Protestants remove seven books from theirs? Who decided which books belong in the Bible? What was their authority? What criteria were used in the selection of the various books? By tracing the Bible’s origins from Moses through the Protestant Revolt of the sixteenth century, Scripture Through History answers these and many other questions.
