In this session, we explore the definition and historical development of the biblical canon. What do we mean when we talk about "the canon of Scripture"? How did the Church recognize which books belonged in the Bible—and when?
We will trace the formation of the canon through:
– The early church’s criteria for recognizing Scripture
– The role of Church Fathers and early councils
– The distinction between inspired books and ecclesiastical writings
– Disputes over the Old and New Testament books
– The influence of figures like Athanasius, Jerome, and the Reformers
This teaching lays the historical foundation for understanding how the Church came to affirm the books that make up our Bible.
