  • Deuterocanonical Books-- Inspired or Uninspired?

    • If so, why are they not a part of the canon?
    • If not, why were they placed in the center or the back of some translations (e.g KJV)?
    • Are they still included today?

  • Who wrote them?

    • Were they written by a single author or by several individuals and over what time span?
    • How many are there?
    • What are the names?
    • When were they written and for what purposes?

  • Do they have any relevance or current use for today's Bible students?

  • Overall, are the Deuterocanonical Books the product to encourage a community or the efforts to reject the Inspired Word (OT) and/or to rewrite history and the Inspired Revelations)?

    • For a greater understanding of the Bible, many want to know. What says ye? CM
