Fifty Bibles of Constantine
The Fifty Bibles of Constantine were Bibles in Greek language commissioned in 331 by Constantine I and prepared by Eusebius of Caesarea. They were made for the use of the Bishop of Constantinople in the growing number of churches in that very new city. Eusebius quoted the letter of commission in his ''Life of Constantine'', and it is the only surviving source from which we know of the existence of the Bibles.〔Eusebius, ''(The Life of the Blessed Emperor Constantine, Bk 4, Ch 36 )'' Constantine's letter of commission〕
== Biblical canon ==
It is speculated that this commission may have provided motivation for the development of the canon lists and that Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus are possible surviving examples of these Bibles.〔McDonald & Sanders, pp.414–415〕 There is no evidence among the records of the First Council of Nicaea of any determination on the canon; however, Jerome, in his ''Prologue to Judith'', makes the claim that the Book of Judith was "found by the Nicene Council to have been counted among the number of the Sacred Scriptures".〔: Canonicity: "..."the Synod of Nicaea is said to have accounted it as Sacred Scripture" (Praef. in Lib.). It is true that no such declaration is to be found in the Canons of Nicaea, and it is uncertain whether St. Jerome is referring to the use made of the book in the discussions of the council, or whether he was misled by some spurious canons attributed to that council"〕
