Who assembled the Catholic Bible?

Answer 1

You need to be more specific. Are you referring to the first publicly sold, printed Bible - which was, incidentally, illegal? To the first Vatican approved one for "learned persons and church use"? To the first gathering of scriptures canonized by "authorities" as valid for the rest of us, in the name of Catholicism?

Each answer is different. A book on the history of The Bible will prove helpful.

No one person is credited with the canonization of what we now call Bible. There have been councils that determine that, even if a king or pope approves their efforts.

The first collection of written scripture is attributed to Moses, who set down the first 5 books - the Torah.

Answer 2

A local Council of the Church (actually two) the Council of Carthage and the Council of Rome, and the Pope, Pope Damascus I. It was compiled from the Scriptures that were read at Mass, see the links below.

When the Gnostic Gospels came in the 2nd Century, the Church needed to find out which books belong in the Bible. So the Church form the Councils that listed OT, plus the 27 NT books.

Though collections of sacred writings, varying in extent, existed in the various local Churches of Christendom, the canon or official list of Scripture was only compiled by the Church toward the end of the fourth century-at Hippo in 393, Carthage in 397, whence it was sent to Rome for confirmation in 419. The Bible may be called the notebook of the Church, and she has always claimed to be the guardian, exponent, and interpreter of it. . . .

By these Councils, the Bible we see today came into be. These Councils are Catholic. How do we know? Well, St. Ignatius of Antioch called the Christian Church Catholic. Let me quote him, "Where there is Jesus Christ, there is the Catholic Church." (Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude [of the people] also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church)

Answer 3

Roman Catholic AnswerThe Bible was inspired by the Holy Spirit and written by Him through various writers. The Bible, as we have it today, was compiled by the Catholic Church at various Councils in the fourth and fifth centuries, and several different Popes. It was written, under the direct influence of the Holy Spirit, by the Catholic Church, complied by It, and preserved by It until this day.

Answer 4

Actually, there is no "Catholic Bible", it is just the Holy Bible. There is also the Jewish Scriptures know as the Tanakh. The Christian Holy Bible is composed of the Septuagint, which was the Hebrew Bible translated into Greek in the fourth century before Christ and the New Testament. The entire Christian Bible was finalized in the fourth century by Pope Damasus I (366-384) and the Council of Rome (382). And ALLChristians read that one Bible until the heretic, Martin Luther, left his life-long vows and repudiated Christ's Church. In formulating his own "church", Luther threw out many Christian beliefs, and to bolster his position he had to mutilate the Scriptures. He did so by throwing out seven Old Testament books that had been read by the faithful for nearly two thousand years, and add words to the New Testament in an attempt to change their meanings.
