Description

The Question of Canon: Challenging the Status Quo in the New Testament Debate by Michael J. Kruger explores the fundamental questions surrounding the composition and significance of the Christian New Testament canon. This book delves into the 'why' behind the emergence of the canon, examining whether it arose naturally from within early Christian faith or was imposed later through ecclesiastical decisions. The author challenges the dominant view that the New Testament is an extrinsic phenomenon, instead seeking to understand its intrinsic relationship with the early Christian community. By questioning the prevailing framework for understanding the canon, Kruger encourages a re-examination of the underlying assumptions and methodologies used in biblical scholarship.
