How was the canon of the Bible formed? "Canon" refers to a standard or rule used to determine which books belong in the biblical corpus. In this short lecture Dr. Licona provides answers to the questions we've all thought at some time or another: Did Constantine decide which books belong in the Bible? Why is it that Matthew, Mark, Luke & John's gospels make it but not Thomas's, Peter's, or Mary's?
We apologize for a glitch that occurs shortly before the 9:00 mark in this lecture.
