I have a Douay- rheims in basement and use a King James on my computer ; I do not have a problem with the 7 extra books , was raised Roman Catholic . The last 10 years I have been a memeber of a Protestant Word of Faith Church .
Many say that Luther started the reformation , took out the apocrypha , etc. which is not the case .
Few people on the RCC side even know all the players in the Reformation : Zwlingli , Calvin , Wycliffe , Huss , Luther , Ferill , Zinzendorf ,etc.
Some say Jerome who went back and made the Vulgate , Latin version , from the original languages , said they were " works of a lesser nature - deuterocanoconical texts " , not to be used for doctrine .
When Baruch , Sirach , and Wisdom were used to substantiate doctrine ( what Jerome and some of the fathers spoke against ) reformers removed and catholics left .... was the spin I got to date ...
I would prefer that the NAB , DR , and Catholic authorized versions , had them between the covenants , where most of the original english versions placed them , instead of scattered throughout the Old Covenant ....
would make it easier to dialogue between catholic and protestant .... if books were set up similar or as a parallel bible was ...
