Well, the Bible already has a lot of old translated Hebrew stuff in it. Are you thinking about something else?

I am not sure. I understood that these Holy Scripts are not written in the Bible. The Holy Scripts could be something else, but I dont know.

Darn! And here I thought he was talking about something like:

SELECT *
FROM TORAH.PENTATEUCH
WHERE BOOK = 'GENESIS'
AND CHAPTER = '12'
AND VERSE = '3'

Perhaps you're thinking about the Dead Sea Scrolls:

there are many scripts that are not included in the christian bible. the bible was made up from many scripts, by some pope in or around the year 90( sorry not shure when) and other scipts were left out to give us the 66. Apocrypha to name one the thomas gospels another just get your self down to a good book shop and ask, or library

Don't you mean 73? Luther et. al. dropped seven at the time of the Reformation.

what the are the numbers you are talking about?

If you're referring to my last post - then it's about the books of the Bible.

Luther et. al. dropped 7 of the 73 books from their Bible - Baruch, Judith, Sirach, Tobit, Wisdom, 1 and 2 Maccabees. Also dropped were Greek-only parts of Esther and Daniel.

Interestingly, the original versions of the KJV included all 73.

thanks for the correction, must update my knowledge
