Protestants claim that the medieval Catholic Church added six extra books that had never been considered part of the Old Testament, either by Jews or early Christians. Catholics say that the Protestant Reformers removed those books, long considered part of Sacred Scripture, because they didn't like what they contained.\n\u003cbr\u003e In Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger, Gary Michuta presents a revised and expanded version of his authoritative work on this key issue. Combing the historical record from pre-Christian times to the Patristic era to the Reformation and its aftermath, he traces the canon controversy through the writings and actions of its major players.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Catholic Answers Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45154946580631,"sku":"9781683570516","price":1531.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781683570516.webp?v=1767662108","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/why-catholic-bibles-are-bigger-revised-second-edition-9781683570516","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
