Overview
What this chart covers

This chart maps the movement from revelation to inspiration, canon recognition, preservation and copying, textual criticism, translation, publication, and present-day reading and teaching.

What it is not
Useful boundary lines
  • It is not a defense of one English translation only.
  • It is not a myth of flawless copying at every stage.
  • It is not a story in which the church creates Scripture rather than recognizing the books God gave.
Four-ring reading method
How to teach it clearly
  • Ring 1: revelation and inspiration.
  • Ring 2: canon recognition in Israel and the apostolic churches.
  • Ring 3: preservation, copying, manuscripts, and textual criticism.
  • Ring 4: translation, publication, reading, and discipleship.
