This research paper: A 6 page paper that discusses the development of the Old Testament canon in three major religious sects: Judaism, Christianity, and Roman Catholics. The writer begins by explaining the meanings of the words Bible and canon and then discusses the development of the Jewish Bible, including the role of Rabbi Johanan ben Zakkai and the Council at Jamnia in 90 A.D. How the books were selected for the Protestant and Roman Catholic translations is discussed next, with an explanation of protocanonical and deuterocanonical books and a list of the Old Testament books in the Apocrypha. Finally, the writer establishes the validity of the canon of the Old Testament. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
