Scholars differ in opinion as to tie
date at which the books now found i'll
the New Testament were complete.l.
says the Review % Reviews, but 1t is
probable that this was accomplished
not later than 40. Many centuries
have passed since the formation Of the
old testament, but the new was all
written within single hundred years.
The decision as to which books should
be received into the new canon was
not 50 quickly reached, for the earliest
fathers of the church frequently quote
from other gospels. such as one aac-
cording to the Egyptians" or accord
ing to the Hebrews" and the Syrian
church accepted some books not re-
ceived by that of North America, or
the western church and vice versa.
There is a legend that at the first eculn-
enical council of Nicaea, 1926, copies OF
the Christian literature then current
were laid beneath the altar and the
genuine DOCKS leaped OUT u tHe lnass
and ranged themselves on thes ALTA
1t probably contains germ of the truth
that at this convocation it was de-
cided that the books now received
were apostolic or written under apos-
tolic direction, and the others were
spurious. Be that as Ut may the judg-
ment of several generations Of Chris
