Description

– 292 p. (Выходные данные не указаны).About the Deuterocanon and Apocrypha: The word ‘Apocrypha’ means ‘hidden away’ in Greek – though their existence has always been known to scholars. Once added to the Canon, they are known as ‘Deuterocanon’ – meaning ‘added to the canon’. All taking place before the stories of the New Testament, many of these books were found in the Greek, but rejected when the Bible was originally translated into Latin because no texts in Hebrew existed for them. Many were later accepted into the Canon of the Catholic Church at the Council of Trent in 1563, with still others being accepted into Orthodox churches later. Regardless of their acceptance as Canon, these books provide a fascinating and informative look into the lives and faith of their authors. Contents: 1 Esdras. 2 Esdras. Tobit. Judith. Esther. Wisdom of Solomon. Sirach. Baruch. Azariah. Susanna (Daniel 13). Bel (Daniel 14). Manasses. 1 Maccabees. 2 Maccabees. 3 Maccabees. 4 Maccabees. Psalm 151.
