The Canon Of The Old And New Testaments Ascertained: Or The Bible Complete, Without The Apocrypha And Unwritten Traditions (1851) is a book written by Alexander Archibald. The book aims to provide a comprehensive and authoritative guide to the canon of the Old and New Testaments, and to establish the Bible as complete without the inclusion of the Apocrypha and unwritten traditions.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of the canon. The first chapter provides an overview of the canon of the Old Testament, including its history and development. The second chapter focuses on the canon of the New Testament, including its formation and the criteria used to determine its authenticity.The third chapter addresses the issue of the Apocrypha, which are books that were included in some versions of the Bible but not in others. Alexander argues that these books should not be considered part of the canon, as they were not accepted by the Jewish community or by early Christian writers.The fourth and final chapter of the book deals with the issue of unwritten traditions, which are beliefs and practices that are not explicitly mentioned in the Bible but are considered to be part of Christian tradition. Alexander argues that these traditions should not be given the same authority as the Bible itself, and that they should be subject to scrutiny and evaluation.Overall, The Canon Of The Old And New Testaments Ascertained: Or The Bible Complete, Without The Apocrypha And Unwritten Traditions (1851) provides a detailed and scholarly analysis of the canon of the Bible, and offers a persuasive argument for the exclusion of the Apocrypha and unwritten traditions from the canon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
