Orthodoxy & Scripture 3B: History of the New Testament

This is the second part to the third installation in my series on Holy Scripture. In this video, I finish the history of the New Testament's canonization, beginning in AD 200 and ending with the official proclamation of the Orthodox canon of Scripture at the Pan-Orthodox Synod of Jerusalem in 1672.
