They explore arguments against the canonicity of the Deuterocanonical books, the inclusion of deuterocanonical books in the Old Testament, the uncertainty and complexity surrounding the canon debate, the influence of the Septuagint in the New Testament, the process of determining the canon of scripture, the inclusion and exclusion of books in the New Testament, and the authority of the early church.
