How was the biblical canon formed? Who chose the books and why were some excluded? In Part-2 of this 5-Part series, Mike Licona interviews the foremost expert on the topic of canon formation, Lee Martin McDonald. They discuss the differences between Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, and Deutero-canonical literature, whether the early Christians knowingly accepted pseudepigraphal literature, why Protestants omit the Apocrypha from their Bible, and a criterion for canonicity recently stated as "irresistible momentum."
