Best Answer

Marcion was the first Christian leader to propose and delineate a canon (a list of officially sanctioned religious works). In so doing, he established a particular way of viewing religious texts that persists in Christian thought today. After Marcion, Christians began to divide texts into those that aligned well with the "measuring stick" (Greek kanōn literally means "measuring stick") of accepted theological thought, and those that should be rejected. This essential bifurcation played a major role in finalising the structure and contents of the collection of works now called The Bible. An initial impetus for finalising the Catholic version of the Christian canon stemmed from opposition to Marcion's first Christian canon.

The last Book of the Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament, was the Book of Daniel. This was written in the second century BCE.The Catholic Bible has two deuterocanonical Books in the Old Testament, I Maccabees and II Macabees, that were probably written a little later.Subject to later canonisation, the Christian Bible was completed when the Books of the New Testament were completed. According to biblical scholars, Acts was a Book of the second century, as were the Pastorals: 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy and Titus. The Pastorals were written by an anonymous author in the name of St Paul, but refer to the second century Church. Thus, the Christian Bible was completed in the second century CE.
