This was absolutely fantastic!! Thank you so much for sharing it! I think it will help a lot of people. I wish I'd had this when I was in college studying the Reformation in a secular university.
I have his book and have only read the first few chapters due to working 2 jobs. Oh boy I can't wait to carve out time and dig into the rest of it! So far!? GET THE BOOK!
"For by these means we shall have strength to overcome our adversaries, like blessed Judith Judith 13:8, when having first exercised herself in fastings and prayers, she overcame the enemies, and killed Olophernes." - Letter 4, St. Athanasius And the Canon was set at both the Council of Rome (382) and Council of Hippo (393). Not sure why this wasn't mentioned...
Saying that Melito included no “Apocrypha” is an assumption. Did Melito consider Baruch to be a part of Jeremiah like many of the later Fathers of the Church did? Why do you assume so for Lamentations? And if Melito did not include Esther, like many, what does that say about the Jewish Canon argument? Melito’s Canon also contains a disputed reference to the Book of Wisdom. Why did the speaker not point this out, and assert confidently that no Apocryphal book was mentioned? The most literal translation of the Greek in Melito’s list is that of Wisdom being separate from Proverbs.
No, no more will be uploaded from the conference. But I keep referencing this one so uploaded it to send to people when I undoubtedly refer to it again in the future.

Why would Josephus’ criteria matter for Christianity? Josephus was a Jew who sympathized with the Pharisees, recording history from this lens after the establishment of the Church. His position is not the witness of Christianity but of Judaism. Equivocating him with the criteria of the “early Church” is deceptive.
Because he was an early Christian Jew and the Jews already had a closed Old Testament canon during the intertestimental period. It’s important because this predates all the church fathers like Augustine who started a different view of the apocrypha. It’s better historical wise to look at what early Jews viewed as scripture and clearly there is no evidence of any deuterocanonical books in their bibles…
