I would like to refer you to the book by Albert C. Sundberg, Jr.,
*The Old Testament of the Early Church,* published in the 1960s by
Harvard University Press. Sundberg in this monograph argued that
the early church did not inherit a closed canon of scripture from
Judaism. Further he argued that there was a difference between a
religious community's holding some literature to be "scripture"
and the community's delimiting the collection of scripture in a
closed canon.
