On this day in 367, Athanasius, bishop of Alexandria, published for his congregants the first authoritative list of the canon of the Old and New Testaments. He included the list as a devotional aid in the pastoral letter he sent out every year on the day after Epiphany.

Isn't that wonderful to send a pastoral letter every year after Epiphany! Did that tradition continue anywhere in Christendom?
