Protestants, have you ever read the Catholic Bible?

Actually the Catholic Bible only has 7 more Books included in the Old Testament. Long before the Protestant Reformation there was additional Books but were latter on removed and considered as Apocrypha by the Western Church. The Books that were kept were considered as Dueterocanonical Books (Second Scripture), these Books were not removed they are not Aramaic or Hebrew, but rather are Greek but that is no surprise because the Christian Old Testament is the Alexandrian Hebrew Bible. They were kept because they do support Apostolic Tradition of His Church, while the ones that were considered as Apocrypha did not support Apostolic Tradition. of His Church. The Eastern Church on the other hand kept these Books that are considered by the Western Church as Apocrypha within their Bible, with no argument made by the Western Church because originally some of them were included in the Latin Vulgate.

The Protestant Bibles shortly the Protestant Reformation and English Reformation began did away with the following.

1. Book of Tobit

2. Book of Judith

3. 1 Book of Maccabees

4. 2 Book of Maccabees

5. Book of Wisdom of Solomon

6. Book of Sirach (Ecclesiasticus)

7. Book of Baruch

8. Additions to the Book of Daniel by St. Jerome (Song of the Tree Holy Children, Sussanna, Bel and the Dragon)

9. Greek Manuscripts to the Book of Esther.

Books that were considered as Apocrypha by the Western Church, but were in the original Latin Vulgate:

1. Prayer of Manasses

2. 3 Book of Esdras which was numbered 1 Book of Esdras in the Latin Vulgate. The 1 Book of Esdras actually is the Book of Ezra in the Old Testament.

3. 4 Book of Esdras which was numbered 2 Book of Esdras in the Latin Vulgate. The 2 Book of Esdras acutally is the Book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament.

Catholic bibles have 73 books.

7 books.

7...

Not 11.

I haven't, actually. Though I was aware there are 11 more books. I do believe though that some books were added just for insight.

Same thing really just more boring.

Good question.

Sorry. I don't have the WISDOM to do that.
