My dad served in WW2 and I was adopted ... My Grandpa Adopted moms side served in WW2 ... I learned about it years later .. Ex Jehovah Witness .. I use the 1966 Doubleday .. And your NIV ... And KJV AMP Parallel Bible ... Would like to study ... I grew up on the 1984 NWT
Dr Reeves , I am presently reading your book and it is a blessing. One thing in it did shock me though; when I ended the first chapter and I saw the STUDY QUESTIONS !!!! I do try to answer the questions and if I must, I review the chapter to be able to answer them. Great book. Thank you very much!!!!!
Please note my Adopted dad is a JW Elder .. My Grandpa was a JW Elder and so were my uncle's ... I was in their Organization 25 years 27 mentally Disfellowshiped for 2 years 2011 - 2013 ... Then disassociated in 2013 🙏 I find it hard to word this right
Oh brother. I can't stand when Catholics try to take credit for the Bible. The Bible was written by the Holy Spirit, through God's chosen profits and apostles. Yet Catholics want to claim it's theirs. What a joke. Every writer of the Bible would be appalled if they saw the Catholic church and his far away it is from the doctrines of the Bible. Catholics who want to take credit for the Bible don't even read the Bible. That's because the Catholic church doesn't ever encourage their members to read it. They don't want you to read it. Throughout history they have suppressed the printing and reading of the Bible. They do that because they want you coming to them for truth. They want you to need them to perform magical rituals to be forgiven. They don't teach that you can commune with God on your own and that all you need is faith in Christ and the blood of Jesus to be justified and forgiven. The pope and hierarchy of the Catholic church has stolen the glory and authority that belongs to Christ and put it upon themselves for selfish, political, and financial reasons. It has done she good deeds, but has also committed plenty of atrocities too, like burning people at the stake who dare to question the pope's absolute authority and power. Its is truly sad how many people have devoted their entire lives to men in long robes rather than Christ Himself.
The apocrypha only exists in Protestant bibles. Martin Luther in his arrogance thought he was wiser than 1500yrs of Church history and tradition. The Septuagint (the Jewish OT that has those so called "Etta books") is quoted by Jesus more so than the Masoretic that came after it.
From my observation you know more about cars than you know about the BIBLE ! You admit you drive a car and you know when something is wrong with it , but you did not READ the BIBLE and tell everything that is right about it .
Dear Ryan, while I have learned so much from your teaching on church history, l am sorry to say this book you have co-authored with Charles Hill has left me perplexed. While I always like to leave a way out for what might be an incorrect assessment on my part, by prefixing my opinion by a phrase such as “it appears to me, “. I would like to state in this public space, that it appears to me that the book is littered with historian bias of the Protestant type. I am a born again Christian who regards with sorrow both Roman Catholic and Protestant excesses. From the first 70 pages of your book l am left feeling that your book potrays the history of the Bible with a heavily Protestant bias. In so doing it displays a subjective bias which distracts from the objective truth. The truth on the canons is hazy in my view, but biases seem to abound in the discourse...as ones very security is threatened by pure Objectivity. Ones religious faith and beliefs causes many a historian to magnify the importance of soft evidence.. On a brighter note, thanks so much for your other teachings from which l have learned so much. Nowithstanding your rendition on “Know How We Got Our Bible has me both saddened and porplexed. My understanding on most subjects discoursed by Christians leaves me leaning evermore on 1 Corinthians 13!12. In Jesus, Much Love Suresh
True brother. "We" Protestants, myself included, don't have all of the truth. I'm learning that even our practices and beliefs have been adulterated, so to speak.
Did you ever consider that he is not biased? I doubt you could ever consider that his teaching of history is accurate and that your Catholic church is the one that got it so wrong from the beginning.
Orthodox also has different books than RC Bible and protestant. Why isnt this said by a man who is a doctorate in this history? Orthodoxy offers more traditional and concrete Christianity than I have ever seen growing up in protestantism and now Catholicism. Odd how Orthodoxy gets ignored or made fun of by other denominations. Maybe something to that.
Pat Labor1 actually Ryan Reeves has a TH-cam channel that goes in to greater detail. He covers the Eastern Churches in several of his videos and the differences it their canon. He is quite fair almost sympathetic to the orthodox perspective concerning the great schism. Note as to why he doesn’t cover it , he is limited in time and he is hitting the stuff most folks are familiar with . This vid is not a instructional piece as much a teaser for a book . You know like the coming attractions in a theater. Your not going to get the whole movie . Blessings
Indian Axe Music and created content i would recommend the Douay-Rheims Bible it was the very first English Bible, this Bible was the basis for K.J.B. Translation i have both.
Mr Reeves' channel is essential listening.
Can't get enough of the Bible history
Love Ryan Reeves, great job on his own channel, really wish he would start uploading again over there. Happy New Year!
big fan of your TH-cam series. Thank you. Please keep doing them.
I am astonished that's your (natural) voice 🤭 🙌🙌 great for Church history videos. Please do more on 15th - 18th century
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for the work that you do Dr. Reeves.
What about the council of Rome in AD382 with the decree of what books belong to the collection?
I believe there is something to what you have to say and are insinuating thereby,

Are you okay?

Didn't know the apostles spoke old English?

Really? Then why did they take the Apocrypha out of it in 1885? Must have been the "true bible" for 274 years and then became the "not true bible?"
