also attempt to shed some light on some of the factors that help determine what biblical books are considered canon today. Reason or Need for Adoption of a Canon of Scripture There were many reasons for the adaption of a canon of Scripture.

"The buildings were for the glory of God, but they also expressed Episcopal prestige and affirmed the bishop's power in the face of his secular rivals." (Duby 1991: 4) Since there were often rivalries between the church and the state, a massive cathedral rising high above the town is one way

without making any attempt to diverge from them, to improve or correct them. The goal of these arguments is an interpretation, an exposition of Marx’s theory as Marx understood it. But this ‘orthodoxy’ does not in the least strive to preserve what Mr. von Struve calls the ‘aesthetic integrity’ of
