Bibical Canon--Please Help

VeniceIT

I'm intersted in finding out more information on the formation of the Bibical Canon. I know the Catholics did it, but I was interested in knowing what all they chose from and why!

Does anyone know of any good sites or books about this!

Thanks in advance,

Venice

Hi Venice,
Try this link. It's just one view, but I found it rather interesting.

Venice,

Some good info on how the bible canon was created can probably be found at www.infidels.org. There's lots of goodies there!

Venice,

The Watchtower Society have articles on Bible canon too.

Here's a fabulous link to all the cannonized and uncannonized books and other writings of old. I personally love this site. Dig around, it is interesting. Anyone wanting to look up Enoch and the books of Thomas and the like will find this site interesting. In your case go to the Early Church Doctrines and see if that helps you to find what you might be looking for. Links that talk abut Bible Study mean Studies of the Bible so don't get confused at that.
