The Debate Over the Muratorian Fragment and the Development of the Canon* — C. E. Hill * Geoffrey Mark Hahneman: The Muratorian Fragment and the Development of the Canon (Oxford Theological Monographs; Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1992. xvii, 237. $55.00). A shorter review of this work appeared in WTJ 56 (1994) 437-38. In 1740 Lodovico Muratori published a list of NT books from a codex contained in the Ambrosian Library at Milan. The text printed was in badly transcribed Latin; most, though not all, later scholars have presumed a Greek original. Though the beginning of the document is missing, it is clear that the author described or listed the four Gospels, Acts, thirteen letters of Paul, two (or possibly three) letters of John, one of Jude and the book of Revelation. The omission of the rest of the Catholic Epistles, in particular 1 Peter and James, has sometimes been attributed to copyist error. The fragment also reports that the church accepts the Wisdom of Solomon while it is bound to exclude the Shepherd of Hermas. Scholars have traditionally assigned the Muratorian Fragment (MF) to the end of the second century or the beginning of the third. As such it has been important as providing the earliest known “canon” list, one that has the same “core” of writings which were later agreed upon by the whole church. Geoffrey Hahneman has now written a forceful book in an effort to dismantle this consensus by showing that “The Muratorian Fragment, if traditionally dated, is an extraordinary anomaly in the development of the Christian Bible on numerous counts” (p.

Kelley: The Canon of Scripture (Principles, Process & Purpose) Abstract There are many factors that contribute to the questioning of the Bible’s reliability and authority. One of these is ignorance of how the modern Biblical canon was formed. Dan Brown, in his best-selling novel, The Da Vinci Code, took inspiration from an erroneous position that the Bible was pieced together by politically motivated members of the Council of Nicaea at the order of Constantine where some books were banned, and others accepted. Holding this view, or others like it erodes the very foundation of the Christian’s faith, and calls into question the relevance of Scripture to modern everyday life as well as its historic reliability and authority as it pertains to one’s relationship and position with God.

  • Study Guide the Bible: an Introduction by Jerry Sumney
    Study Guide The Bible: An Introduction by Jerry Sumney Chapter 1 - The Bible: A Gradually Emerging Collection Summary The Bible is a collection of sixty-six separate writings, with some written in Hebrew, others in Hebrew and Aramaic, and others in Greek. They were collected by communities of faith that came to view them as authoritative for their communities’ beliefs and practices. The Exiles of Judah began to compile texts as authorities that developed into the Hebrew Bible. This collection was mostly complete by the beginning of the first century CE and its boundaries secured by near the end of that century. The earliest church accepted the Jewish community’s Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible (the Septuagint) as its authoritative text, even as some people within the church began to write the materials that would eventually make up the New Testament. Looking back, we can see that the early believers in Christ evaluated the newer writings by asking whether they were apostolic, whether they were widely known within the church, and whether what they taught fit with the beliefs the church had already accepted. These selected texts, in turn, helped those early believers shape their views about God, Christ, the world, and the church. It also helped them reject views that ran counter to what the larger body of Christians believed. No one person or council determined what books would be in the Bible; rather, it developed over the course of several hundred years, with minor disagreements remaining even into the modern era.

    Lee Martin McDonald, “The Integrity of the Biblical Canon in Light of Its Historical Development,” Bulletin for Biblical Research 6 (1996): 95-132. The Integrity of the Biblical Canon in Light of Its Historical Development Lee Martin Mcdonald First Baptist Church Alhambra, California [p.95] The following essay argues that the final fixing of the Hebrew Scriptures and the Christian biblical canon did not emerge until the middle to the late fourth century, even though the long process that led to the canonization of the Hebrew scriptures began in the sixth or fifth century BCE and of the New Testament scriptures in the second century CE. Pivotal in the arguments for an early dating of the Hebrew Scriptures is the lack of unequivocal evidence for the fixation of the Old Testament canon in the time before Christ but also the emergence of canonical lists of scriptures only in the fourth century CE. It is also argued that the Muratorian Fragment originated in the middle of late fourth century CE. The paper concludes with a discussion of viability of the traditional criteria of canonicity and whether these criteria should be reapplied to the biblical literature in light of more recent conclusions about authorship, date, theological emphasis, and widespread appeal in antiquity. Key Words: Canon of Scripture, Muratorian Fragment, early Patristics I. Introduction For the last generation or so there has been a growing interest in the formation of the Christian Bible and the viability of the current biblical canon. With little or no change in the

  • Plague of Cyprian: One of the Deadliest Pandemics Occurred
    3/29/20 Sunday AM Adult Class "Is the Bible Reliable?" Many challenges to the reliability of the Bible: 1. Da Vinci Code (Dan Brown) 2. The God Delusion (Richard Dawkins) 3. The Moses Mystery (Gary Greenberg) In light of these challenges, how did we get our Bible? • Errors in translation? Telephone Game? How God gave us the scriptures (2 Pet 1:19-21) (2 Pet 2:15-16) 1. Early Christian caught with scripture were executed in their possession were executed • Corrupt Church determined which books were "in and which were out" Determined by a council? For whatever set of reasons, there is a widespread belief out there (internet, popular books) that the New Testament canon was decided at the Council of Nicea in 325 AD—under the conspiratorial influence of Constantine. The fact that this claim was made in Dan Brown’s best- seller The Da Vinci Code shows how widespread it really is. Brown did not make up this belief; he simply used it in his book. The problem with this belief, however, is that it is patently false. The Council of Nicea had nothing to do with the formation of the New Testament canon (nor did Constantine). Nicea was concerned with how Christians should articulate their beliefs about the divinity of Jesus. Thus it was the birthplace of the Nicean creed. The shape of our New Testament canon was not determined by a vote or by a council, but by a broad and ancient consensus. Here we can agree with Bart Ehrman, “The canon of the New Testament was ratified by widespread consensus rather than by official proclamation.” Muratorian fragment (named after its discoverer Ludovico Antonio Muratori) contains our earliest list of the books in the New Testament and dates back to c.180.

  • The Muratorian Fragment: the State of Research
    JETS 57/2 (2014) 231–64 THE MURATORIAN FRAGMENT: THE STATE OF RESEARCH ECKHARD J. SCHNABEL* The fragmentary document known as “Canon Muratori” contains the oldest list of books of the NT. This essay will present the state of research regarding the Fragment, with particular attention to its date as wEll as its historical and theologi- cal significance. I. THE FRAGMENT The Muratorian Fragment consists of 85 lines; the beginning and probably the end are missing. The Fragment was discovered by Ludovico Antonio Muratori (1672–1750), an archivist and librarian at Modena, in the year 1700 in a manuscript in the Biblioteca Ambrosiana in Milan (Cod. Ambr. I 101 sup.), consisting of 76 leaves of coarse parchment.

  • "Canon Muratori: Date and Provenance," Studia Patristica 17.2
    Canon Muratori Date and Provenance E. Ferguson Abilene, Texas LBERT C. Sundberg, Jr. used the Third International Congress on New Testament A Studies at Oxford in 1965 to offer a 'Revised History of the New Testament Canon'.1 Subsequently he published a major attack on the early date of the Canon 2 Muratori in the Harvard Theological Review. The scholarly community can be grateful for his collection of evidence, from which, however, it is possible to draw a con­ clusion quite different from Sundberg's conclusions. The following examination follows the arguments of the article in the Harvard Theological Review. I wish, first, to make a general observation: Even if the argument for a fourth- century date and eastern (Palestinian or Syrian) provenance for the Canon Itiuratori should be sustained, a major revision of the understanding of the history of the canon would not be required. The evidence for the church having a collection of books (although with the limits not precisely defined) by the end of the second century does not depend on this document and is well established from the writings of 3 Irenaeus, Tertullian, and others apart from its existence. What would be lacking is evidence that someone had attempted to reduce that collection to a list. I agree that the Canon Muratori was not written from Rome (p. 6), but the language about Rome (11. 74-76) does suggest a place where Rome was important and the situ­ ation there well known and thus a place with close connections with Rome, When the author says, 'we receive' (11.

    APPENDICES: FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO DIG DEEPER! The following collection of data from antiquity is to aid readers in their further interests in canon formation. It is essential information for a more complete understanding of the formation of the Bible as well as the processes that were involved in the church’s recognition of its Bible. This data was published in earlier volumes noted in the Further Reading at the end of the Appendices. THE STORY THAT LISTS, CATALOGUES, AND MANUSCRIPTS TELL In what follows, we will list some of the most important catalogues of Jewish and Christian scriptures that have significance for canon forma- tion. A collection of these lists in parallel columns for comparison allows one to see the general agreements as well as the exceptions to those agreements among Christians in the fourth and fifth centuries. APPENDIX A: HEBREW BIBLE/OLD TESTAMENT LISTS I. Lost Ancient Books Mentioned in the Bible, but Not Preserved The Bible mentions several books that did not survive the ancient screening processes that led to the recognition of our current Old Testa- ment Scriptures.
