Catholic Christians, following the
Canon of Trent, describe these books as
deuterocanonical, meaning
of "the second canon," while Greek Orthodox Christians, following
the
Synod of Jerusalem (1672),
use the traditional name of
anagignoskomena, meaning "that
which is to be read." They are present in a few historic Protestant
versions: the German
Luther Bible included such books, as did

These four works were questioned or "spoken against" by Martin Luther, and
he changed the order of his New Testament to reflect this, but he
did not leave them out, nor has any Lutheran body since. Traditional German
Luther Bibles are still printed with the New Testament in this
changed "Lutheran" order.

These are the
Apocrypha as defined by the
Thirty-nine Articles of
Anglicanism to be "read
for example of life" but not used "to establish any doctrine".
[1]
Luther made
a parallel statement in calling them: "not considered equal to the
Holy Scriptures, but are useful and good to read."
[16] These
books are listed in the order of the 1611 KJV, which closely
follows the order of the
Vulgate.

The foundational Thirty-Nine Articles of Anglicanism, in Article VI, asserts that these
disputed books are not (to be) used "to establish any doctrine,"
but "read for example of life." Though the "Biblical apocrypha" are
still used in Anglican Liturgy, ("Two of the hymns
used in the American Prayer Book office of Morning Prayer, the
Benedictus es and Benedicite, are taken from the Apocrypha.
One of the offertory sentences in Holy Communion comes from an
apocryphal book (Tob. 4: 8-9). Lessons from the Apocrypha are
regularly appointed to be read in the daily, Sunday, and special
services of Morning and Evening Prayer. There are altogether 111
such lessons in the latest revised American Prayer Book Lectionary
[The books used are: II Esdras, Tobit, Wisdom, Ecclesiasticus,
Baruch, Three Holy Children, and I Maccabees.]" —The Apocrypha, Bridge of the
Testaments), the modern trend has been to not even
print the Old Testament apocrypha in editions of Anglican-used
Bibles, the last English translation for the Biblical Apocrypha
being the Revised Standard Version of
1957.
