Muratorian Fragment
Book • 2022
The Muratorian Fragment is a late 2nd-century text that provides one of the earliest lists of New Testament books.
It lists most of the books we now consider canonical, but it also omits some and mentions others that are not included in the modern canon.
The fragment offers valuable insights into the process of canon formation in the early church.
It is a significant historical document for understanding the development of the New Testament canon.
Its incompleteness, however, leaves some questions unanswered about the early church's views on certain books.
