The Complete Apocrypha: 2018 Edition with Enoch, Jasher, and Jubilees Paperback – July 31, 2018

2024 Revision of 2018 editionAfter purchasing this particular version, I looked deeper into the negative reviews. This is my first time purchasing this. I’ve read quite a bit of Enoch and have heard of many of the others, but I’ve never done my own research this far. Reading the negative reviews told me what to look for.1- All of the pages are there2- All of the books are where the Table of Contents says it will be.3- None of the books are “missing” chapters.3A- Begins with Esther, chapter 11. The first 10 are in the Bible.3B- Any omitted chapters are acknowledged for; as in recognizing we do no have them, but we do have fragments.3C- Fragments are labeled as such. Which tells us that again, we just don’t have them. They are lost, never found, destroyed…. Gone. Not omitted.4- Easy to read print. Not a 2 or 6 as I had seen some claim. (I’m sure they were just exaggerating.) I included a side by side with my standard sized bible for you to see the comparison.Keep in mind, my knowledge of the contents included in this book is minute. But I can tell you that it very beautifully does have everything it says it does. The cover is very nice. I am happily satisfied with this purchase. Not one single complaint.I’m sorry to those who bought lemons. But thank you for your reviews. I was excited to sit for as long as it took (2hours 😁) and see what this book has and make sure it was all there. It actually was fun.I really hope my review helps you decide which version would be best fitting for you.

I am trying to read this apocrypha, however the print is very small. It doesn’t include Adam and Eve and how they lived, when kicked out of the garden. This same publisher has a 2022 edition with 52 stories: has bigger FONT, 700+pages! Yippee! I love a good, lengthy book. This translation, is easy to read. When I read the KJV Bible. I actually wrote on one of the pages, ‘Does God even like women?’ I was so perplexed as there are so few women who do amazing things. However this apocrypha is full of women and men who actually do miracles and godly things. I’m not a women’s libber. But gosh, it’s so nice to see women as something more than concubines.I see why the governing bodies, in those days, took out these chapters. Also, Enoch is NOT a flat earther! Ridiculous. He says he went to the “four cornerstones” of the earth: N-S-E-W, in my opinion. Not to the edges of the flat world. I am sending this back, it’s too hard to pick up and read. I’m 1.75 readers and by page ten, I’d say I adapted to the font. But, I want to pick it up and have the first sentence readable. There is a large print, by this publisher. It looks ridiculously large. 9 verses to a page. If you’re elderly, that mightBe perfect for you. If you’re a middle age house wife, or a ‘honey-doer’ then get the newest edition. Such incredible stories. I’m happy I got it. But I’m sending it back for the larger font. I’m excited to read it, as a whole: 52 books.Rapture is coming. God bless you.

Great

Exactly as described. No complaints

I had been exposed to Enoch and some of the other Apocrypha and it was good to have it in book form.So that was not new to me...What was new to me was the expanded story of Abel and Cain and how Cain offer was not as acceptable...Abel gave of the finest of his flock...Cain offered leftovers after he had selected the cream of the crop for himself...How Isaac boasted that he would be willing to be sacrificed to others...then Lo and Behold the Lord holds him to it down the road.So many expanded stories such as these that provide a more human take and explain the motives involved.Also the expanded story of the hundreds of years spent in Egypt that the Bible glosses over...This and many other revelations are what make this book so valuable.It expands on what is merely mentioned in KGV and provides much that is of value.

Well made book, easier to read / follow than the 1611 kjv apocrypha. I have no issue reading this small font, yet i understand why some do. It has the psalm 151 chapter as well. I wish there was a second edition as there are more books to the apocrypha and bible that are not included here for it to be named the complete apocrypha..."Acts of Solomon" mentioned 1 kings 11:41Shemaiah the prophet - 2 chronicles 12:15Prophecy of Abijah - 2 Chronicles 9:29The annals of king david 1 chronicles 27:24Acts of uziah (2nd Chronicles 26:22)There's a bunch more but readers get my drift lol. This is still a great book to have honestly. I have a cepher bible to go along with this addition of books as well. I'm on a quest for more missing books. The Ethiopian bible has over 100 books, the cepher over 80 books, etc etc.I would recommend this book. Good paper for highlighting as well.

This is the part that was left out between the old testament and the new testament. Do yourself a favor it's an amazing read. If you wanted to know who enoch was you'll find them in here
