Poll: Old Testament Apocrypha

Strider:

Jesus quoted from these books. As Fr. Corapi says, “If it’s good enough for Jesus, it’s good enough for me.”
There’s a great old thread on Bible history. Maybe you could do a search.

Which books are you refering to? The deuterocanonicals or the Levitical Law and such? Are the deuterocanonicals quoted in scripture?

Yes, there’s quite a few deuterocanonicals quoted in ‘Scripture’ (they are considered Scripture for us…) you would have to do a Google search for ‘deuterocanonical quotes’, I’m not sure which ones are quoted, but I know there are some quoted by Jesus & the Apostles.

Please see scripturecatholic.com for instance.

You’ll have to forgive my use of the word “scripture”. Although I am increasingly coming to the opinion that the deuterocanonicals are inspired, I am a creature of habit.

That website has some impressive proofs. I was stunned at the amount the New Testament references these books. What have been missing all these years?
