The History of the Bible Gets More Complicated! The Biblical Canon ~ Part 2
Channel: The Caffeinated Bible
Date: 13/11/2022

"How many books are in your Bible?" Do you know why? Why do Catholics, Protestants, and Orthodox churches differ over how many books are in the Bible? Second of two videos on this topic.

The history of the biblical canon is a long and very interesting story -- at least I think so. 
We pick up after Jerome and his Latin Vulgate and trace this very interesting history down to the Bibles we have today.
So grab a cup of Joe and  enjoy.
