HH #5: The Canon of Scripture: Old Testament
Episode 5 of Household Hermeneutics is here, and today we're taking a look at the Old Testament canon of Scripture!
We believe that the 39 books we have in our Old Testament are the exact right books to have. We are going to look back at history and in the Bible itself to find out how the Old Testament canon was formed, and why we can have confidence in it's inspired accuracy.
