About This Clues Answer
We think the answer is "APOCRYPHA" which means:
- noun
- • 14 books of the old testament included in the vulgate (except for ii esdras) but omitted in jewish and protestant versions of the bible; eastern christian churches (except the coptic church) accept all these books as canonical; the russian orthodox church accepts these texts as divinely inspired but does not grant them the same status
An example sentence would be:
- • "Many books that were once considered part of the biblical canon are now classified as apocrypha."
- • "The apocrypha includes texts such as the gospel of thomas and the book of enoch."
