Books that Didn't Make it into the Bible

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 มิ.ย. 2024
- In this video, we'll overview the Apocrypha: texts that were left out of the Bible. From the Old Testament: Enoch, Jubilees, Bel and the Dragon; to the New Testament: The Gospel of Judas, Mary and Thomas. For one reason or another, these texts were excluded from Biblical Canon.
Now, this is not an exhaustive list. There are many, MANY, books in the Apocrypha. We're really just at the tip of the iceberg and sampling some of the most prominent texts. This is just an introduction after all. I'd love to go into more detail into these books such as Enoch and the Gospel of Judas. Let me know what you'd like to see in the comments below.
This video marks the start of Season II. Thank you for your patience, I can't wait to surprise you with more obscure topics that deserve more attention...

I remember being TERRIFIED as a kid when I heard of the gospel according to Peter. I was raised thinking that Elohim has magickally preserved the bible, so the existence of a text which claimed to be holy but wasn’t in the bible made me question how we really knew the books actually in the bible were holy. It was a scary time for a 9 year old
Have you watched Trey the Explainers “Changes to the Bible” miniseries? He expressed many similar feelings to what you have written and were really chill about it
@@UnironicallyToast actually, yeah I have. He’s super good at what he does. I really liked his stuff on the nephilim and Lilith.
But also, the first time in like 6 months I clicked a trey the explainer video happened to be the moment I saw your comment telling me to watch him lol. That was a really weird coincidence
You still a Christian?
what is it
@@vincentmackinnon3601 what?
The image of a dude shoving cakes down a dragon's throat until it chokes on said cakes is fucking hilarious to me.
Makes me wonder if the writer was inspired by watching pigeons explode after eating too much rice lmao
Same here! Mythology never ceases to amaze.
I was damn near crying from laughter when I heard that part
It is more convincing than St George with his toothpick of a sword, and so much funnier!
I guess you must've been laughing, but, he fed the dragon cakes until it exploded.
Would anybody else like to learn more about the book of Enoch? It seems pretty cool since it includes demons and things like nephilim
Religion for Breakfast did a video on it. Of course you can find the full text online and many websites, like Wikipedia, will have a summary.
Fk no bAaBy
Inspiringphilosophy made a good video on it. It was scholarly. I recomend it.
Grab an Ethiopian Bible Nate, they preserved it.
Enoch 1 is canon to the Bible in many places
3:34 "Surprisingly however, is not with a sword, but by feeding it enough cakes to cause it to explode"
Wheck-it-Ralph 2 intensifies
I saw Apocrypha and automatically thought "Hermaeus Mora?"
I would really like to have a Bible with every single book nothing cut out I want the real book
As someone currently playing Skyrim, this was exactly what I thought when I saw the thumbnail 😂
I unintentionally bought one such version on Google Play (didn't realize it had these missing books).
I mean as a commenter put it, the bible is literally just a bunch of fanfiction and eventually some people decided what was canon and what isn't. The bible is already a mess of plotholes and continuity errors in it of itself, but adding the other books would make it into an ungodly and impossible to understand amalgamation of weird stories. It would be cool to have a complete bible for historical purposes, but seeing how religious people put the bible on such a high pedestal, they probably wouldn't take a complete bible seriously and they'd say that it's blasphemy or something weird like that.
@@qwertydavid8070 yeah i agree w you and it really sucks. i wanna read the real bible
that’s exactly what i thought too lol
I feel like if the dude “walked with God” he might have had some important stuff to include in the bible

This is really interesting to me because in middle school I had a kid from Ethiopia in my class who's name was Enoch (he insisted everyone call him Mr. Enoch) and now that I'm learning that the Ethiopian church consideres the book of Enoch canon and is responsible for preserving it. Neat.
Maybe that's why dark forces are all ways so hard on the children of our father in etheopia..God bless them
At that, they believe to be direct descendants of Christ. Or something along the lines. See the revolution, and Salassi
The fact you don’t have 5 million subscribers is insane. You provide such informational videos that are presented perfectly and all of the information is so interesting and delivered in an engaging format.
Ikr. Most people seems to prefer watching stupid tiktok videos and so on...
Do commentary on all the apocrypha books . Explain one book at a time . That would be fascinating.
That would be a long ass series.
Shepherd of Hermas, 1st and 2nd apocalypses of Peter, 2nd and 3rd apocalypses of John, Gospel of Judas, Gospel of Thomas, Infancy Gospel of Thomas. Those are just the ones that pop into my head from recent memory, I agree it'd be sick, but to do it justice he'd need to consult relevant scholars with respect to apocrypha, like John J. Collins for example. If he did that, I think it could be a gem of a series.
Yes please.
@@chaseharrison2064 better for the channel, more content
@@lenkngomez8451 But doing all the apocryphal literature is no mean feat, so he'd need to be diligent and consult scholars. Otherwise, I'm all for it.

Don’t know how I found this channel, but I’m glad I did.
I was literally thinking that precise thought! Brilliant madness & mad brilliance!
Sameee now i cant stop watching these videos
same
I know right?? The replay value is insane
it just popped in to my recommended vids, it was about the biblically accurate angels. This channel is like those angels giving messages to humans.
I'm neither religious or someone who studies the Bible, but I find your videos fascinating from a historical point of view - how things come to take on the meaning and identity we give them now, and how the Bible has been put together through numerous component books and authors into how we know it today... Your tone and presentation is informative and well balanced to enable a layman like myself to learn, and provides plenty of food for thought. Many thanks for your hard work and efforts.
I would just like to say your work is amazing, I smile ear to ear every time I see a video of yours pop up in my feed.
Don't forget us when you're famous
I imagine hochelaga will be the next kurzegast, but instead of science it'll be of religious texts .

@@tufhgjfghfhgjfgh true dat!

Only known as “Apocrypha” to Protestants. Those books have always been in our Old Testament Canon in the East. I’m Orthodox.
Exactly
The correct term is deuterocanonical. Tobit, Judith, Baruch, Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach, 1 & 2 Maccabees have been in the Bible since conception. Only Protestants have the Luther Canon which removed Scripture from the Bible.
That said, the fact Irenaeus, disciple of Polycarp, disciple of John, disciple of Jesus Christ, is mentioned, and pronounced correctly, I give the film maker a pass on the Apocrypha confusion.
@@harryallenpearce89 The term apocrypha was applied to the books by Jerome who died in AD420. He insisted that they were not scripture and did not want to include them in the Vulgate but was overruled. The disputation on these books does not originate with the reformation.
You're right. I'm Latin rite Catholic.
Dus Wil
Jerome quoted those writings as Scripture later.
You left that part out.
And it was Martin Luther that moved those books to the center and titled the Apocrypha, declaring them to not be Scripture.
Both Jerome and Luther were referring back to the Council of Jamnia. Not only was the Deuterocanonical books left out, Jesus Christ was also rejected as Messiah, and all NT writings were rejected.
In Jerome’s defense, he didn’t know that canonization happened AFTER the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is why Jerome changed his opinion later, quoting those writings.
Martin Luther doesn’t have that excuse.
@@harryallenpearce89 correct.
This channel and Trey the Explainer are some of the best content on YT and seeing as how Trey was my previous favorite channel dealing with stuff like this that's high praise
I was really craving for more detailed explanations or possible interpretations of each book as you were presenting them. So my answer to your last question: I want every book in detail!

I am personally a Christian and these videos really give me insight on questions I have
never trust humans for answer, even if they are believer
Bible is more trustworthy to get the answers, at least for me
plot twist: the Bible is writen by human capable of bullshit so take it with a grand of salt
@@makotomachiyuki Sorry to break it to you but the bible was written by humans. Humans from thousands of years ago whose knowledge was incredibly limited compared to all that we know now.
@@Rascarrr no shit it was written by humans you just stated the obvious it's a god inspired book exactly how god wanted it
@@murderonmarz1647 true
I've wanted to find a channel like this for a while. I've always loved lore and wanted to explore the mythology side of Christianity without having to actually follow the new age version of religion

@@TomorrowWeLive New Age Christianity is the religion as a system and practiced today. It really strays from core principles, and many sects of NAC still follow the old testament and its punishments. Too many people today claim to be Christian, and use it as a scape goat to hate people.
It is fantastic how you manage to concentrate such an amount of information in 9' minutes. Really appreciate it!
The Gospel of Judas sounds exciting
Not sure if you're aware of it but I refer you to the episodes of Red Dwarf called Waiting for God and Lemons.
I have read it & the main idea was that judas knew what he was doing was fulfilling the prophecy made by god & that he did it because of that
I wish I could remember the name of the documentary that basically said that Judas was the only one to actually understand the message Jesus was trying to explain....
@@phoneboxchicken4108 that was an awesome episode!
@@jefferygoldmann2643 so basically Judas is an misunderstood Hero or something
Would love to hear more on Enoch, Judas seems like a meaty topic as well however.
U can easily find the enoch book i got one.It talks about the nature or nephilims and how the world works.Its actually the first book that says earth is sphere and says how seasons works.
Enoch is interesting.
I really, REALLY don't recommend looking into the Gnostic gospels. They're deeply occultic, and it'll be a test for your soul if you go down that route.
The Book of Adam and Eve, and the book of Jubilees>>>
as a Catholic I just want to say that this was a good video, thank you for not dissing anyone's faith and keeping the 3rd person view throughout the video. I learned some new things too and I did want to say that you got a lot of information correct on the Catholic Bible, keep up the great work
Just found your channel and I love it! I do hope that you are still making new videos! Very interesting, educational, and entertaining!
Honestly, I'd love to see a video on each of these texts!
Why don't you just buy the book? I have a copy. Is not difficult to find
You're back! Hope your studies are going well.
I greatly enjoy the soothing nature in which you bring about your videos! Learnin more every day 👍🏻
Wonderful video. I've always thought myself an amateur theologist and I had no idea. Thank you for filling in the gaps to my knowledge, looking forward to learning more from you
I feel like I should pay you for this information
you can pay me if you like
You are paying him in a way. TH-cam pays him for views and subs
Meh... Chuck Missler above all.
Would love to see a breakdown of the book of Jasher, or the Book of (Adam&)Eve. Jasher is a particular favourite of mine and very elucidating, in the context of such.
Personally I found the First Book of Adam and Eve kinda funny. It really paints the picture of a parent and child relationship between God and Adam and Eve.
try to locate with search..
It's just about laws in the old testament
You do a great job of explaining succinctly and clearly and making rather tedious (yet curious) topics plainly understood thanks for doing it and enlightening us while saving us so much time!
Ur channel and specifically this video, in a strange way made me develop a profound curiosity for the bible. I've been a Christian for a long time, but this showed to me how much knowledge of the context of those times you must have to really comprehend what's written and how interesting it can be.
Just finished my last exams and this was my dessert!! Wonderful job as always, I absolutely love the background music you put on these. I also like that you are making this more interactive with us. I can't decide between both of the books, so I'm going to flow with the majority
What most people do not consider is that "The Bible" was translated into the Latin language at a certain time, in a certain place and by a certain people. Not only was it translated, it was cobbled together from many separate items in different languages, from diverse lands and eras. Effectively, "The Bible" was created, by selecting and editing certain scriptures in certain ways. Had some decisions been made differently, we could have ended up with a completely different bible, and some completely different religions as well. But as it is, the creation process of this book was full of opportunities for things to go wrong. The decision to produce a single book may have been a mistake in itself.
Only in the West. We use the Septuagint only which is Greek, written in Greek from before the time of Jesus. The New Testament was also written in Greek.
I didn't know Moses understood Greek ... Fascinating.
@@kevinyoung42 Greek was used by Jews outside of Palestine which was how the Septuagint came to be.
@@Katholikos78 Fascinating. And to think I always assumed
the Old Testament was written in Hebrew, but today I have learned those ancient sheep herders were literate in Greek. Truly miraculous. Thank you for this wisdom.
@@kevinyoung42 then you’re not as intelligent as you thought because the Greek Septuagint was translated by Jews for Greek speaking Jews.🤦🏻♂️
Love the overview, would like to see more on some of the mentioned texts. Great stuff, keep it up
Been binging your all your uploads since I watched the Bible accurate Christmas video. Thanks so much for the great content, very well researched and presented fluidly. Looking forward to future content!
The gospel of judas sounds really interesting
Why?
@@davidtilley354 it goes into the nature of god and what god is in the esoteric metaphysical sense. Like how it describes life as an endless cycle of torture and that the only way to go towards the greater heaven is to reach some form of understanding.
@yes'nt Yeah, The god that Christians worship today is an evil and manipulative one and the true god doesn't want to be worshipped. All he wants is for mankind to reach deep understanding of the soul, the universe and the collective experience. The heavens and earth is actually hell. It's not where the true god resides. The true god wants mankind to break it's cycle of life, death, Reincarnation and enter his domain where the greater reality awaits. That's really what Jesus tried to convey judas.
Constantine: not Canonnnnnnnn!

I KNEW you'd have this in your line up! Big thanks on this one
My friend, I have always found the book of enoch to be incredibly interesting. I would love to see you do a video on that subject!
Dude, keep doing this, your content is great. People learn from you more than they do from schools, churches and parents. Excellent work!!!!
Hold on to that peter ,he is all ways watching & loves you kido,
When you have to edit the bible because you think its excess, you're doing it wrong. Translate not localize.
It's not about "doing it wrong". It's about what benefits they will gain, remove the parts that are not for their benefits, so that the vatican has the highest power globally.
They weren’t editing the Bible, they were creating it. The early Church looked for consistency and eliminated the odd ones out.
Awesome information, thank you! I'd like to see ALL books in more detail! Wonderful presentation.
Very interesting!! Let's see what more Season 2 has to offer :)
This was a very well done video. I have always been fascinated by scriptures from around the world. In fact, I have read and collected stacks of them, including the Nag Hammadi texts, the Acts of Peter (and other apostles), the Apocalypses, the Vedic scriptures, the Book of Mormon, the Koran, the Zoroastrian scriptures, many apocryphal and pseudepigraphal works, and countless others. There's definitely a lot of ground to cover.
I would love to here more about the book of Judas. I never heard of the book, but considering what Judas did, it would make sense for his book to change the image of Jesus.
It would change the image of both Jesus and Judas. I imagine that it says that "the betrayal" was actually part of the Plan, because how could it not have been?
@@straightupanarg6226 it’s a gnostic gospel and gnostics believe that a human could get a higher power of salvation the gospel is about some false conversations about Jesus and Judas were Jesus tells Judas that’s above them all and that he even could get Jesus place on the cross you see how it’s gnostic now? The cannonical gospels tells us that Judas died by suicide and the gnostic gospel of Judas says that he was stoned to death by the 11 disciples
I would care not, what the traitor has to contribute,
@@jacobsien1078 litterally written like 200 years after Judas died by gnostic people
It's definitely made up. It literally says Jesus lied about everything and he will only tell Judas the truth. It's also written in the third century, hundreds of years after Judas's suicide.
I'm loving your content dude. Your channel definitely needs more attention! 🙌🏼🎉
I found your channel a day ago and spent the last couple hours binging your videos! You're a great creator. Very interesting. Maybe you could do a video about how certain "Christian" holidays were originally Pagan and the origins thereof?
I wish you the best, and you're a wonderfully intriguing creator :)

Keep up your content like this always, short but concise videos, nice!
Looking forward to season 2! Would really be interested in hearing more about Gnostic Christians, since they seem to be really unorthodox an interesting. I would like to hear your take on the myth of Yaldabaoth and the Demiurge.
I also think it'd be interesting to here your take on William Blake and his art/poetry regarding the Red Dragon, Urizen, etc.
my math teacher taught me about stuff like this. he said they had a lot of them in Vatican city.also this is probably my favorite channel. some of the most interesting stuff ive seen on youtube.

@@PeaceToTheUniverse wym people are dying for something they think is real so obviously there's at least some chance it's not real because there's no proof. There's also no proof that the "word of God" has been spoken, only people whom have claimed to have heard it
@@PeaceToTheUniverse are you Christian? If so then all the texts described are fiction to you.
@@PeaceToTheUniverse but you said this is not fiction. These books are not Christian canon and you can't believe in them. To you they are fiction.
There is no evidence that the word he spoke was truth. In fact there is no evidence he even said half the stuff he is claimed to. Historically they only verifiable fact about Jesus was that he existed and people followed him, the rest could be hog wash.
Maybe you should do a whole series dedicated to apocryphas? Also I love your channel, you make bible stories sound exciting and interesting.
I agree! But, there are a LOT of apocrypha. BTW, the singular is *apocryphon* and the plural is *aprocrypha* (because it’s from Greek). So no need for the extra ‘s’ to refer to more than one. Just nitpicking, but I thought mayeb you’d like to know. I like to know that kind of stuff :-)

the comment that I was looking for
Many of these “apocryphal” books are (and always were) canon in Catholic and Orthodox bibles
But for Christians they don’t believe in those books because they are so far after the original books and are written with unknown authors they were deemed non canon to most theologians. I also believe they are non canon due to how long they came after the other books and by their authors
@@Arelius_02 many of the so called “apocryphal” were always part of Christianity because they were part of Judaism during Jesus' time.
Some books like Maccabees do take place after, but that's because there's a period of centuries between the Old and New Testament in Protestant Bibles were nothing happens, Catholic and Orthodox Bibles fill this void, and these more historical focused books are no different than Chronicles for example, no real reason to exclude them.
@@adrian7856 yea their is because during Maliki the Old Testament was completed n anything between him and Jesus is non biblically cannon because the Old Testament was complete and anything after or during Jesus is the New Testament adding false books after the Old Testament is wrong an shouldn’t be put inside of the Bible the Jews didn’t except them themselves and in the Dead Sea scrolls none of those books where added because they weren’t expected because those books contradict other books of the Old Testament or show false beliefs
@@Arelius_02 You are wrong, there are literal books of the Dead Sea Scrolls like Sirach, Tobit and Baruch not found in Protestant Bibles or Jewish Tanakh, but they are found in Catholic and Orthodox Bibles.
And who's Maliki?
@@adrian7856 sorry I meant Malachi stupid iPhone autocorrect who was the last of the minor prophets and is the last book of the Old Testament those apocrypha do not correlate with the rest of the Old Testament maccabees states you may pray for the dead while the Bible states Deuteronomy 18:9-12 states a consulter with familiar sports, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the lord Jews believed that the Bible doesn’t contradict itself and doesn’t have any contradictions inside of it either but adding those non biblical canon text contradicts the Bible after Malachi the Old Testament was complete and finished anything after between him and Jesus’s time is non canon because once Jesus is born the New Testament starts leaving no room for any other false texts
I just wish the videos were longer! They're so good
I would love a video on the Book of Enoch!!! I always learn so much from your videos!
Have you read the books? There are actually 3, Enoch 1-3
Something I have always wondered is that is the apocrypha merely inconsistent accounts left out of the original Bible or are they accounts left out because the church couldn't use them to exercise their authority?
The Apocryphal books are only called that by protestants, they're canonical to Catholics and Eastern Orthodox.
The Gnostic gospels are a different group of books which were excluded because they were, in fact, the secret property of certain christian groups. They weren't included in the Bible because they weren't common knowledge.
When we're talking about the Old Testament apocrypha, we have a bit of a problem. The person in the video is using wrong terminology, the books like Tobit, Judith and 1 and 2 Maccabees were in the Bible since 300 BC, but Luther thought they were made up stories, so protestants don't have them, but both the catholic and orthodox churches treat them like any other books. That's why they are called deuterocanonical books, not apocrypha. The real Old Testament apocrypha like Enoch or Jubilees are just books written by Bible scholars that were never really aiming to be in the Bible, they were just interesting teachings claiming to be written by some important Old Testament character to be more popular. So those were either obviously not trying to be in the Bible or they were gotten rid of by Luther.
When it comes to New Testament apocrypha, the great majority are already too new to be in the Bible, being fifth-or-more-hand accounts of Jesus's life. Out of these you have those that simply collect tradition of questionable origin (Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew, Acts of Peter), those that are made up "fanfiction" (Acts of Paul and Thecla, Infancy Gospel of James, Questions of Bartholomew) and those made up by gnostics (Gospel of Philip, Gospel of Mary, Gospel of Judas) that all follow a single theme: a person Jesus knew is told the "actual truth" by him, the apostles don't believe them and so the gnostics are better because all of Jesus's teachings were fake and only that one person was told the truth and only they know it. They are so obviously fake it's absurd. None of those three types of New Testament apocrypha were trustworthy enough to be put in the Bible. And then there are just some letters by early scholars and popes that easily could have been in the Bible but people just decided that they were just written too late. Nothing controversial about them, they just had to draw the line somewhere. So no, no books were excluded because christians didn't like them.
@@rafexrafexowski4754 it's nice to get an educated answer! Thanks for the info.

I would love to get more in depth videos of the Books of Enoch, Jubilees, and Judas. I somehow stumbled upon your video of what the angels really looked like and I was sucked in immediately. Your videos are very educational, and you can tell you have taken time learning about all of this. Also please make more videos about Cipher's, that one was pretty cool.
Is there anything in the books that are in the bible itself, or the ones not listed, that speak of parallel universes? Just curious
Are you a graphic designer or die you collab with one? I want to see their personal work. Your videos look so contemporary, crisp and stylish.

Hmm I'm getting the old polish legend vibe when ,,Szewczyk Dratewka" or ,,Shoemaker Dratewka" made a fake sheep filled with sulfur as bait to a dragon that was ruining his kings castle, the dragon ate the sheep and he started to feel thirsty, he proceeded to drink the water from the river nearby, he was constantly drinking the water and then there was a very loud noise coming from the place where he was drinking the water. He drank so much that he exploded
That sounds horrifying for both sides
There's a Daniel story with a dragon too.
i'm very interested to watch your take on the demiurge, the syzygy of christ and sophia, the ein sof, the sephirot, etc..
really cool channel you have. i'm really digging the concise manner you explain things.
Hey hochelaga. Love your work. I would love to see the gospel Enoch and jubilee in details. Thanks and stay safe.
The Gospel of Mary please. As hers is the only time I have ever been told about a female point of perspective! All of these books and there, fairly, untold stories are fascinating to me!! Good work again!
I'm really sorry about this, but this "gospel" is heresy. It was written in the third century, completely contradicts both the Old and New Testaments and was definitely made up by the author. Gnostics had a habit of taking random characters from the Bible and having Jesus tell them the "actual truth". The most common were Mary Magdalene and Judas.
I would very much like to learn more about The Book of Enoch. I first heard of it in a book called Uriel's Machine written by Lomas & Knight. Thanks for the videos. Jake
I would like very much to see more videos about the gnostic apocrypha and about the gospel of judas. Thank you for this video!! Thumps up! :)
Love the video you should keep making these
I’m interested in the gospels of Mary and Enoch.
The book of Judas sounds interesting, as well as the book of Thomas. It would be great to see videos from you about this two books.
Amazing channel. Thanks for the gripping and educational content!
Nice content, thanks for your work
