Description
The apocrypha is a selection of books which were published in the original 1611 King James Bible. These apocryphal books were positioned between the Old and New Testament (it also contained maps and genealogies). The apocrypha was a part of the KJV Bible for 274 years until being removed in 1885 A.D.
Many Israelite scholars believe it should never have been removed- that it was considered part of the Bible for nearly 2,000 years before it was recently removed a little more than 100 years ago. Many point to the verse in Revelation 22:19 that warns against taking away from the Bible "And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." The word 'apocrypha' means 'hidden.' Fragments of Dead Sea Scrolls dating back to before 70 A.D. contained parts of the apocrypha books in Hebrew, including Sirach and Tobit.
While the Books of Enoch, Jasher, and Jubilees are not considered Apocryphal books, they are each ancient scriptures included in early Biblical Publications.
