29. The Council of Nicea or the Nicene Council chose the books of
the current Bible. I think they met around 300 AD. That's when some books made it into the Bible and others didn't. As I understand it, the more mystical traditions and the books that were more female centered were tossed. Many others also were tossed. What made it is basically the Bible we know today.
