Ezra is Ezra, 1rst Esdras is really 2nd Esdras if you consider Ezra to be 1rst Esdras, 2nd Esdras in the EOC is 3rd Esdras because they call Ezra 1rst Esdras, making 2nd Esdras to the Greek a FOURTH Esdras to the Catholics. So second Esdras in the Greek is also refered to as 4th Esdras...

I would too if I were Eastern Orthodox ;)

Yeah and guess what, Apocrypha books weren't allowed in the churches at all!, these did not include the books found in the LXX. Jerome mislabeled them, the proper label would have been "Ecclesiastical Scriptures" but nope, no TRUE Apocrypha books were ever used or quoted as Scripture by no known...

God provided the corpus of Scripture for the early churches, it was not by mere happenstance either, Jesus and the Apostles quote from the Septuagint as it's primary source of Scripture. Change my mind

I thought the great schism divided the RCC and the EOC, regardless, both still hold "Apocrypha" books (give or take a few) as scripture, just as the first churches did.

I don't think anyone other than me, Nathan and perhaps MoreCoffee realize how widely the "Apocrypha" were used and quoted as scripture throughout all churches (according to Origen), if anyone here can prove to me how Wisdom 2 is NOT Holy Inspired and is UNWORTHY for your Bible, I would love to...

Makes me wonder if this is what made the tree of knowledge of good and evil so appealing to Eve as it must have been noticably large in stature. I've read somewhere, maybe in an encyclopedia, that the tree in a center of a garden was not to pruned or touched.. perhaps that's because of the story...

Josiah, you are correct , Enoch is a person, just like everyone is a person, Job is another great example of an individual!

Define Scripture again.

He forgot to include the prayer of Manassah

@Josiah Jesus, The Apostles, the Apostolic Fathers, The Ante-Nicene Church Fathers, all quoted from the same Greek source for the OT, thus they endorsed it as scripture and held it as such, you can figure this out by simple comparison, the NT quotes the LXX as it's primary source. This is NOT...

The "Russion Collusion" was found out to be a completely bogus conspiracy, USA People like to keep on top of such claims, regardless of independent fact checkers, as they are totally unreliable. :)

Look for a 16 Chapter book in your King James NT, I believe it's called "Romans".. 😉

"A Krimple in the Temple" - Dr. Zeus

He wants evidence of his attitude toward certain books that he has compared to Dr. Seuss literature in the past.. good for him if he owns a Luther Bible, perhaps he should have respect for it other than constantly attempting to provoke those who actively encourage others to hold those...

How is a subject that questions the legitimacy of modern democracy not of any interest to you? Perhaps give it look-see, and then decide if it's interesting enough to continue watching? My YouTube algorithm may seem eccentric to many, I subscribe to opposing sides just as much as I do the...

Look! The Lord is coming with thousands and thousands of his holy ones, to execute judgment on all, and to convict every person of all their thoroughly ungodly deeds that they have committed, and of all the harsh words that ungodly sinners have spoken against him. And behold! He cometh with ten...

Origen mentioned this name "Sarbeth Sabanaiel" when discussing Hebrew books... Hmmmm, I wonder what Sarbeth Sabanaiel means... anyone want to google it for me?

Just wondering if you accept the RCC canon of the NT

What is your New Testament canon of scripture?
