Description
Derived from Gregg Allison’s magisterial Historical Theology, this
digital short provides a concise but thorough history of how both New
Testament and Old Testament books were identified as Scripture and
incorporated into the final canon. Attention is paid to differences
between the Catholic and Protestant canons and to debates about the
inclusion of apocryphal books. The equivalent of a series of lectures on
Scripture’s formation, with extensive footnoting for further reading,
this digital short provides a one-stop reference resource on a
foundational matter of Christian doctrine and worship.
