Catholic Bible vs Protestant Bible vs Orthodox Bible
Why do Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox Bibles have different numbers of books? One Christian opens a Protestant Bible and sees 66 books. Another opens a Catholic Bible and sees 73. Then an Orthodox Christian opens a Bible that may contain even more. Same Christ. Same apostles. Same New Testament. Different Bibles. So what really happened? Did Catholics add books to the Bible… or did Protestants remove them? In this video, we investigate one of the most misunderstood questions in Christian history: why the Catholic Bible, Protestant Bible, and Orthodox Bible do not have the exact same Old Testament. This is not just a debate about numbers. It is a deeper question about Scripture, tradition, authority, the Septuagint, the Hebrew Bible, the Apocrypha, the Deuterocanonical books, and how different Christian traditions received the Bible through history. We’ll explore why Protestants use a 66-book Bible, why Catholics recognize 73 books, and why the Orthodox Old Testament does not fit neatly into the simple Catholic vs Protestant debate. The real question is not just: “Which Bible has the right number of books?” The deeper question is: Who has the authority to define Scripture?
