I agree that it is useful to allow users to read the deuterocanonical/apocryphal books if they like, regardless of your theological or church traditional bias regarding their status. They add historical insight that help us understand the 66 books of the Bible that all true Christians agree on, among other things. I see no harm in preserving or presenting them, even though I grew up in a church that did not use them.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but currently the only modern English Language version I can see that contains the deutero-canon is the CPDV version. I'm not at all sure about this version, partly because it is a bit ponderous to read, and also because it is the work of only one person rather than a group of translators. Michael mentions the WEB version as having the extra books - the Sword module I can find contains only the 66 book canon. Is there anything else out there please?
God bless, Barry. _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
