Chronology of the Apostolic Age and the Development
of the New Testament Canon
A chronology is now appropriate in order to present a
sequence of events both biblical and extra-biblical which
affect the canon of the Bible, both Old Testament and
New Testament.
It is said that no two scripture scholars will agree on one
apostolic chronology. Hence what is presented here is
acceptable to some but not universally. It serves to give
points of reference for the events that took place and
their consequences.
