## What is KJV Bible with Apocrypha?

The biblical apocrypha denotes the collection of apocryphal ancient books found in some editions of Christian Bibles in a separate section between the Old and New Testaments[1] or as an appendix after the New Testament. Some Christian Churches include some or all of the same texts within the body of their version of the Old Testament.

Although the term apocryphal had been in use since the 5th century, it was in Luther's Bible of 1534 that the Apocrypha was first published as a separate intertestamental section. To this date, the Apocrypha are "included in the lectionaries of Anglican and Lutheran Churches." Moreover, the Revised Common Lectionary, in use by most mainline Protestants including Methodists and Moravians, lists readings from the Apocrypha in the liturgical kalendar, although alternate Old Testament scripture lessons are provided

The preface to the Apocrypha in the Geneva Bible explained that while these books "were not received by a common consent to be read and expounded publicly in the Church," and did not serve "to prove any point of Christian religion save in so much as they had the consent of the other scriptures called canonical to confirm the same," nonetheless, "as books proceeding from godly men they were received to be read for the advancement and furtherance of the knowledge of history and for the instruction of godly manners." Later, during the English Civil War, the Westminster Confession of 1647 excluded the Apocrypha from the canon and made no recommendation of the Apocrypha above "other human writings", and this attitude towards the Apocrypha is represented by the decision of the British and Foreign Bible Society in the early 19th century not to print it (see below). Today, "English Bibles with the Apocrypha are becoming more popular again" and they are often printed as intertestamental books.

The seven books which comprise the Protestant Apocrypha, first published as such in Luther's Bible (1534) are considered canonical Old Testament books by the Catholic Church, affirmed by the Council of Rome (AD 382) and later reaffirmed by the Council of Trent; they are also considered canonical by the Eastern Orthodox Church and are referred to as anagignoskomena per the Synod of Jerusalem. The Anglican Communion accepts "the Apocrypha for instruction in life and manners, but not for the establishment of doctrine (Article VI in the Thirty-Nine Articles)", and many "lectionary readings in The Book of Common Prayer are taken from the Apocrypha", with these lessons being "read in the same ways as those from the Old Testament". The first Methodist liturgical book, The Sunday Service of the Methodists, employs verses from the Apocrypha, such as in the Eucharistic liturgy. The Protestant Apocrypha contains three books (1 Esdras, 2 Esdras and the Prayer of Manasseh) that are accepted by many Eastern Orthodox Churches and Oriental Orthodox Churches as canonical, but are regarded as non-canonical by the Catholic Church and are therefore not included in modern Catholic Bibles.

### 3/5 — Glitch

*2025-10-11, version 1.0*

Greetings,

I have an issue with the app. I cannot read the book Additions to Esther because the app does not let me click on it. The only way I can read it is if I go to the book of Judith and go to the very last chapter. After going to the last chapter of Judith, I have to swipe the page right just to be able to access anything in Additions to Esther. The same applies to Wisdom of Solomon. I have to go to the very first chapter and swipe backwards to get into Additions to Esther. Other than that I have no problems with the app except the ads. I know you want consumers to pay for no ads, but really, an ad just for scrolling in the same chapter? That is ridiculous.

Thank you for your time

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-11-02, version 1.0*

Great app I love you can open your bible and can read anywhere you choose and that it comes with the apocrypha is a plus and I love that it has a progress chart.

### 3/5 — Where is the Search Bar?

*2024-09-06, version 1.0*

I was strongly considering purchasing the ads free version but I can’t even use the free version with a word search. If you add that, tag me, and I will update my review and download fully. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Holy Scriptures

### 3/5 — Great app

*2024-02-02, version 1.0*

Which it had more settings like making the Fonts bigger so I can read them  better but over all 1 of the best bible apps in store

### 2/5 — Needs some work

*2024-01-14, version 1.0*

Won’t let you purchase the ad free option. Who wants to really have ads/ commercials playing why they are trying to study the Bible?  Can’t change the font

### 1/5 — Too many Ads

*2024-01-04, version 1.0*

You can’t read peacefully, without Ads popping up.

### 1/5 — There’s no search bar on the app

*2023-02-27, version 1.0*

Why is there no search bar on the app?

### 5/5 — Bible

*2022-10-12, version 1.0*

Love this app

### 1/5 — No Font Control

*2022-09-19, version 1.0*

Typo is too small to see clearly without straining your eyes. Need to be able to enlarge the Font to make it easier to Read
