100 AD perhaps at a hypothetical Council of Jamnia-however, this position is increasingly criticised by modern scholars. Evidence suggests that the process of canonization occurred between 200 BC and 200 AD, and a popular position is that the Torah was canonized c. Rabbinic Judaism (Hebrew: יהדות רבנית) recognizes the twenty-four books of the Masoretic Text, commonly called the Tanakh (Hebrew: תַּנַ"ךְ) or Hebrew Bible. The Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Assyrian Christian churches may have minor differences in their lists of accepted books. The Catholic Church and Eastern Christian churches hold that certain deuterocanonical books and passages are part of the Old Testament canon.

Differences exist between the Hebrew Bible and Christian biblical canons, although the majority of manuscripts are shared in common.ĭifferent religious groups include different books in their biblical canons, in varying orders, and sometimes divide or combine books. Some books, such as the Jewish–Christian gospels, have been excluded from various canons altogether, but many disputed books are considered to be biblical apocrypha or deuterocanonical by many, while some denominations may consider them fully canonical. Various biblical canons have developed through debate and agreement on the part of the religious authorities of their respective faiths and denominations.
