For the canonical books, follow the traditional order established by religious traditions, such as the Septuagint for the Old Testament and the common arrangement of the New Testament letters and gospels. For non-canonical books, research their historical context and grouping, as they may vary between Christian traditions. Finally, list them in chronological or thematic order as appropriate for your study or presentation.
