Listen "The Apocrypha (aka The Deuterocanon): Should these books be in our Bible?"
Episode Synopsis
SummaryThe Apocrypha, also called Deuterocanonical books by Catholics, are extra books included in the Roman Catholic Old Testament, but not part of the Protestant Old Testament. In this episode, I discuss the reasons I do not believe the Deuterocanonical books are Sacred Scripture. These writings give us historical information and are generally useful, but they are not to be used as Holy Scripture. The Roman Catholic Council of Trent in 1546 says they are Scripture. Do we have to believe the Roman Catholic Church just because they say so?ResourcesCatholic Answers - A "pro-Catholic" resource. They have a free version of the Catholic Encyclopedia which provided me with quotes from the Council of Trent and some definitions used in this episode.Apocrypha Debate - White vs. MichutaThe Old Testament and the Apocrypha - In depth article which includes additional information on this topic.My Friend’s Podcasts“Andrew’s Daily Five” - Music countdowns.
