Marvellous entry again brother Chad Bird. The biblical canon itself is a big deal to consider when studying Scripture as there are tons of nuances to consider. As for the Apocrypha, just pick a good Good News Bible and read them. Such books could definitely be a tremendous tool to learn about Jewish intertestamental history and some other aspects of OT Israel. I'd recommend Dr. George Athas' book Bridging the Testaments for a nice introduction to the topic.
I think Kjv stopped including the DC books in the 1880s. I recently read the DC books including most of the additional books in the Orthodox cannon. I agree helpful.

They were source books for the books that were in the Bible. I'm sure have read non-fiction books that give references to books out of print. It's sort of like that.

First, I’m not a pastor. Second, I don’t know why this would be strange at all. For the first two or three centuries after Protestants, including Martin Luther, began translating the Bible into their native languages, the Apocrypha was included in all editions of the Bible, including the King James Version (as I pointed out in the video). Just because we don’t accept certain books has canonical, does not mean that we don’t view them as very useful for understanding the scriptures.
Just as today, biblical life happened within a sociocultural context. Having a broader understanding of biblical contexts helps us become better students of scripture. Holy Spirit, our teacher, can give us a thicker theology if we are willing to learn. It takes humility to dig into and study the word.

Thank you, brother. I’m learning so much from you! Thanks be to God!
I found the Apocrypha very interesting. I accept that it's not canon, but that doesn't mean it can't be useful for my spiritual growth.
Yes, same with me.
Really appreciate the longer form content Chad. Learnt alot. 🙏

I read all of these so I understand the context of what scripture says.
How u would have read the book.? He himself says the true books are not in existence?
Very helpful information, thanks.
Maybe you have links to buy these books so we don't accidentally get some bunk versions?

What do you recommend for a print edition of the DSS?

This recommendation to study the "lost" books in order to better understand the Bible seems strange coming from a Protestant pastor.
