So what is the Apocrypha? Why do some bibles have it and others don’t? Why does the Hebrew Bible (the scriptures Jesus studied) in a different order? The KJV, NIV, RSV.. why so many versions? Does it matter what I read?
Is it necessary to know these thing? Nope. But…. if you would like to be more connected to the Bible that you read? Want to know more about Torah and who really wrote it? What were the Jewish traditions during the time that Jesus and the Apostles lived? Are there 4 different endings to the book of Mark? And now that new discoveries (past decade) have found the Hebrew versions of the Gospels… will your Bible change?
This is a beginners class but everyone is welcome!
