The Formation of the Canon: Hayward Lectures 2006 – Biblical Studies Online
I just posted in Spanish the link for the book by John Barton, What is the Bible? Keeping in line with this emphasis, I am offering the entry from Biblical Studies Online, that deals with the formation of the Canon.
Here it’s the description of the event:
The 2006 Hayward Lectures, held at Acadia Divinity College, are available on YouTube. Lectures by Emanuel Tov, James Charlesworth, Stephen Dempster, Craig Evans, Lee McDonald, Stanley Porter, and Jonathan Wilson address various aspects of the formation of the biblical canon(s).
The lectures the became the book, Exploring the Origins of the Bible, if you click the link, you will read the first chapter by Emmanuel Tov.
If you like, you can watch the lectures here. However, go over to Biblical Studies Online, it’s a wealth of info.
