#79 – The History of the Acceptance of the Apocrypha
byC. Michael Patton

### #79 – The History of the Acceptance of the Apocrypha

In this episode, we trace the fascinating and often controversial journey of the Apocrypha—those books sitting between the Old and New Testaments in some Bibles but missing entirely from others. Why were these books accepted by some traditions and rejected by others? How did Jerome, the Reformers, and the Council of Trent each weigh in? Join us as we explore how the Apocrypha was received across Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant lines and why it still sparks debate today.

    In this session, we dive into one of the most important differences between Roman Catholic and Protestant theology: justification. What do Catholics mean when they speak of justification as both a process and a state? How does it differ from the Protestant understanding of imputed righteousness by faith alone?
