Do you know what the arguments were of the Puritans and Presbyterians in the early 1800’s when they lobbied against the printing of the Apocryphal section in the Bible?
(I’m asking for THEIR arguments back then, not modern-day arguments that people give today).
“The Puritans and Presbyterians lobbied for the Apocrypha’s removal, and in 1826 the British and Foreign Bible Society refused to allow its funds to be used to pay for printing it. By 1885 Protestant Bibles no longer carried it.”
