The Canon of Scripture
The [[Old Testament]] canon of Scripture is that of the [[Septuagint]], which was the Bible of the [[apostles]]. Other Christian communions through the years have deviated somewhat from this apostolic canon which the [[Orthodox Church]] still uses. The canon of the [[New Testament]] was developed over the early centuries of the Church. Its first known listing in its final form is the ''Paschal Letter'' of St. [[Athanasius of Alexandria]] in A.D. 367.
Alternate names and notes for the books of the canon are given in parentheses.
