Fr Jonathan Resmini joins us once more, this time to discuss the controversies around which books we include in the Biblical canon! Joshua Noel and TJ (Tiberius Juan) Blackwell ask Fr Jonathan about the history of how the canon of Scripture came to be, what differences there are in Catholic / Protestant / Orthodox Bibles, and what other books are important to the foundations of our faiths and traditions.

What is the biblical canon? What books are in the biblical canon? What is the biblical canon set? How is biblical canon decided? What is the largest biblical canon? Why was the Book of Enoch removed from the Bible? What books were removed from the canon Bible? What are 7 deuterocanonical books? What is the difference between Apocrypha and deuterocanonical?
