Title: Comment on one of Chaim's answers
Post by: judeanoncapta on August 26, 2008, 04:51:14 AM

Dear Chaim,

I think that you may have been in error when you said that there are no Christian groups who cannonize the Apocrypha.

As far as I know, the Catholic church has cannonized the Hebrew apocrypha and they even read from the book of Ben Sira when they install a new pope.

Also, Christian preachers use Hebrew apocrypha alot. Especially the book of Jubillees.

Yes you are right Apokryphen are a part also of Luther's bible translation. But the book of Hennoch is not.

I think this is was Chaim meant.
