'''Scripture''' is a technical term for writings that are definitively characteristic of particular religious traditions. It is more specific than the term ''[[religious text]]'', which scholars can apply even to mythological and ritual texts from ancient religions, where records of their authority (or [[heresy]]) have not survived. Scholars of comparative religion investigate the different reasoning that lies behind why various traditions determine some writings to be scripture and others not.

This can be illustrated by the ancient documentation of an [[Ancient Egypt|Egyptian]] cult of [[Aten]], which lasted little more than a generation, having been suppressed as heresy. Although texts in praise of Aten, like the [[Great Hymn to the Aten]], perhaps were Aten scriptures, they cannot be considered definitive of the mainstream ancient Egyptian scriptures. On the other hand, the [[Nicene Creed]] is an early Christian description of their beliefs. However, although this is clearly a religious text, and is still highly valued by Christians today, they do not consider it scripture. Scriptures are a very specific type of religious text.
