Where We Got the Bible: Our Debt to the Catholic Church
'Where We Got the Bible: Our Debt to the Catholic Church' Summary
'Where We Got the Bible' traces the journey of the Bible through the lens of Catholic history. Graham argues that the Catholic Church played a crucial role in preserving and transmitting the scriptures, starting with its foundational role in establishing the biblical canon. He emphasizes the contributions of monastic scribes who meticulously copied manuscripts, ensuring the survival of the text throughout the Middle Ages. Graham also sheds light on the Church's efforts in translating the Bible into different languages, making it accessible to the common people. The book challenges the notion that the Bible was a purely Protestant possession, demonstrating the Catholic Church's long and continuous connection with the scriptures. Graham's work, originally delivered as lectures and later published in articles, offers a popular and accessible account of the Catholic perspective on the Bible, addressing historical arguments and counter-arguments in a straightforward, yet respectful manner.Book Details
