In this interview, Fr. Stephen De Young, an Orthodox priest and Biblical scholar, talks about his new book on the apocrypha. This is an interesting topic since many do not know that traditions from various extra biblical documents are cited and used in different ways in the Bible and in later Church tradition. But what exactly do we mean by "apocrypha"? How has the protestant doctrine of Sola Scriptura formed our culture and hence our understanding of Scripture? What is an Orthodox understanding and evaluation of these ancient documents? What are their place in the life of the Church? What are their relationship to the canonical books? What is the relationship between Bible and Tradition? What is gnosticism? These and many more topics are discussed in this episode.

Apocrypha is a fantastic book that opened the doors to several books I needed to know about and read. Fr. Stephen does a great job reviewing and explaining them within their historical context.

Thx for getting my question answered:)…about James being significant etc…Fr Stephen’s answer was very helpful:) I had a dream about James when I was small and I’ve spent a lot of years trying to understand the meaning behind it etc(especially as a Baptist Minister’s daughter:)…some of what Fr Stephen said was familiar to me, but I gained some brand new insight watching this and am excited to see where it takes me on my quest to understand it all:)…I skipped through some of the conversation(anxious to hear the question part at the end lol)…but I’m looking forward to watching it completely:)…I’ll be back to you with some other weird off topic questions probably lol

Question 🙋‍♂️ Why does Malachi not mention Enoch in the passage below since he is the other witness in the book of Revelation? Blessed Athanasius Mitilinaios says that the Prophet Elijah will proclaim the Prophets of old to the Jews in order to refill the Messiah to them. The Prophet Malachi said that the Prophet Elijah will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents, by referring to the Prophets of old who their forefathers rejected. Elijah is going to point to the Prophets of old who spoke about Christ Incarnation, His death, burial, and Resurrection. The Prophet Enoch was before the Patriarch Jacob (Israel) therefore in he would be numbered among the gentiles like Adam, Noah, Melchizedek, the Patriarchs Abraham, and Isaiak, therefore the Prophet Elijah who was after the Patriarch Jacob (Israel) will preach to the Jews whereas the Prophet Enoch will preach to the gentiles. Does that make sense? Malachi 4:5-6 4 “Remember the law of my servant Moses, the decrees and laws I gave him at Horeb for all Israel. 5 “See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful day of the Lord comes. 6 He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike the land with total destruction.”

Doesn't this public vs private distinction mean that Revelations is Apocrypha?

@TheDroc1990 10 месяцев назад

The Revelation of Jesus Christ by the Holy Saint Apostle John, the Theologian, not apocryphal.

@Joefrenomics 10 месяцев назад

@@TheDroc1990 i was trying to say this definition doesn’t apply to Revelations because it’s considered scripture despite not being apart of any churches public readings.

@@Joefrenomics Aren't there a lot of Biblical books that aren't read in any services? It seems like there's a difference between "commonly read in public (Epistles and Gospels and such)" and "suitable for reading in public (the whole Bible), perhaps?
