Thank-you. So as you can see, it was GREEKS who determined the canon of scripture....

The story behind Hebrews and Revelations being part of the Canon is an interesting one. Apparently it came about as part of a deal between the Latin Church and the Eastern, Greek speaking Churches, one for the other.
