Non-Canonical Texts *

Note about Non-Canonical Texts:

There are additional texts that have been traditionally included in Greek manuscripts of the Old Testament. These other books are not considered canonical, however, and they are not listed in the canons of Scripture laid down by the holy fathers of the early centuries (e.g. St. Athanasios, St. John of Damascus). The saints sometimes cite these non-canonical texts as pious reading for Christians, but they cannot be deemed as the divinely inspired word of God.
