Church of the East position on non-canonical Books
#8
Shlama Akhi Mike,

No, there was never a Council of Carthage for the CoE. No Synodal decree has ever been issued to declare what the NT canon consists of, nor what language the books inside that canon were originally written in (let alone, any books they were unaware of.)

The only witness we do have is the books that were quoted from in the CoE's patrimony and liturgical texts.

The only comparable situation I can think of is the state of the Hebrew canon pre-Jamnia.
