The Apocrypha: The Complete Deuterocanonical Texts of the King James Bible (Illustrated)
The word apocryphal was first applied to writings which were kept secret because they were the vehicles of esoteric knowledge considered too profound or too sacred to be disclosed to anyone other than the initiated. All King James Bibles published before 1666 included the Apocrypha. Many reprintings of older versions of the Bible now omit the apocrypha and many newer translations and revisions have never included them at all. This is the complete Christian Apocrypha as it appeared in pre-1666 KJ Bibles:
1 Esdras 2 Esdras Additions to Esther 1 Macabees 2 Macabees Tobias Judith Wisdom Sirach Baruch Epistle of Jeremiah Susanna Prayer of Azariah Prayer of Manasseh Bel and the Dragon Laodiceans
This new digital presentation of the KJV Apocrypha includes touch navigation and a dynamic, organized format with Book List, Chapter List and JumpToVerse. The text has been reformatted to accommodate larger font options. There are indexed verses and chapters, interactive Table of Contents for each book and expanded Chapter Links for easy access. There are also links to free audio recordings of select books as well as an image gallery showcasing art inspired by 1 and 2 Maccabees and the Book of Judith.
