Which books truly belong to Holy Scripture, and why? In A Scholastical History Of The Canon Of The Holy Scripture, seventeenth-century bishop John Cosin offers a rigorous yet devotional exploration of that question from within the Church of England. These questions still shape faith. Moving through the testimony of councils, creeds and early Church Fathers, Cosin traces how the Old Testament, New Testament and the Apocrypha came to be received or set aside, clarifying the distinctively Anglican view of Scripture and its place in church of england doctrine. At once a christian theology classic and a meticulous historical theology study, it serves as a reliable bible canon reference for anyone interested in apocrypha and biblical canon, english reformation theology and the contours of seventeenth century anglicanism. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Both a pastor and scholar resource and an inviting entry-point for thoughtful lay readers, Cosin's work speaks to seminary and theology students, pastors crafting sermons, and laypeople curious how the Bible took its present form. Its engagement with patristic sources, conciliar decisions and Protestant biblical canon studies makes it an invaluable companion for early church fathers studies and wider conversations in christian theology. For readers seeking insight and collectors who cherish classic works of Christian thought, this Alpha Editions volume bridges devotional reading and serious study.
