Have you ever wondered: How did we get the Bible? Where does the Bible come from? And why are there different Bibles? In this primer for anyone interested in Bible study, Dr. Pitre takes you through a three-part study of the origins of the Old and New Testaments. Particular focus is given to the history of how the canon, the official list of books in the Bible, came to be, and the central role the Catholic Church played in the formation of the canon. Dr. Pitre also explores the reliability and authorship of the Gospels, and whether or not we can have confidence that the canon of Scripture is reliable. This fascinating series will answer questions such as:
• Where did the Bible come from?
• Why are there so many different versions of the Bible?
• Why are those books in the Bible?
• What was the Jewish Bible like at the time of Jesus?
• Why are there seven less books in Protestant Bibles than in Catholic Bibles?
• How do we know that the Gospels are reliable?
• What are the Dead Sea Scrolls and the “Lost Gospels”?
• How did Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformers change the Bible?
• What about “Sola Scriptura” and belief in the “Bible Alone”?
Whether you’re a beginner or a lifelong student of the Bible, you’re sure to gain new and exciting insights from this informative series. So, if you’re interested in learning about the hottest selling book in the history of mankind, then this Bible study on the Bible is for you!
To understand our Catholic faith in a world that needs true faith explained, knowing how the Bible comes to us in a well explained and simple manner helps us to witness better whenever that opportunity presents itself. When the priest dismisses the congregation after Mass and tells us to go in peace, let us bring the Word of Peace with us and with the strength of knowledge we get from studies like this one.
As always everyone was so attentive and appreciative for the information and Brant's great presentation style on the history of the Catholic bible.
And thank you to Michael for such good support from Catholic Productions.
Loved it. As usual Dr Pitre presented the information in a casual way that was totally understandable... l learned so much more about the Dead Sea Srolls and the finding of them, more about the decision of which books formed the Canon, and more about Luther and Calvin's part in dismantling it. Thank you, Dr Pitre
To really absorbed and learned the origin of the Bible, I highly recommend watch them 3 to 5 times. I did. I may watch them all over again next year.
This was the best bible study I have ever seen. Dr. Pitre is fantastic! The research was extremely thorough. The presentation was superb. All Christians should see these videos and have the typed outlines to go with them.
