The Old Testament and the New Testament
The Greek canon added 8 books to the Old Testament canon. These books, known as the Deuterocanonical books, are not present in the Hebrew Bible but are included in the Greek Septuagint and Catholic Bibles.
In general, "canon" means the writings considered holy and authoritative. The Bible itself does not mention a canon. I think you mean, "What is the canon OF the Bible?" This refers to the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments. They are canon because they have the authority to define Christianity. Another example: Harry Potter fans sometimes refer to the ten books by J. K. Rowling as "the canon". This means they are the books that tell the real story of Harry Potter. The eight films and any other books written by Harry Potter fans do not count as canon.

Answer 1I have looked at this topic myself and I couldn't find any answers. What I believe is that the Canon (with 46 books in the Old Testament), while the Bible contains all of 39 books in the Old Testament, and 27 in the New Testament.Answer 2The Bible is a particular anthology of books, forming a singular holy scripture. While Jews and the different Christian sects may disagree about which books compose the Bible, they all agree that the Bible is one anthology.Religious Canon is the group of all major books and anthologies that a particular religion uses. For example, the Nicene Creed is an important part of the Catholic and Orthodox religious canon, but is less important to Protestants and irrelevant tp Jews. The religious canon includes all of these different pieces of literature in addition to the Bible. (Or if the person is discussing a non-Judeo-Christian religion, the Bible may not even be part of the religious canon.)
