History of the Canon: Holy Bible

How did the Bible we hold in our hands become the Holy Scripture we trust with our lives?

In History of the Canon: Holy Bible, Dr. Samuel Ajayi takes readers on a clear, faith-anchored journey through the formation of the biblical canon—from ancient scrolls and apostolic writings to the recognized collection of books we now call the Word of God.

With pastoral warmth and theological depth, he explains how God preserved His revelation through councils, controversies, translations, and traditions. This book explores why certain books were accepted, what happened to the Apocrypha and other “lost” writings, and whether the Bible can be trusted as complete and reliable today.

Ideal for pastors, Bible teachers, seminary students, and Christians seeking a deeper understanding of Scripture, this book strengthens confidence in the Bible as the inspired and authoritative Word of God.
