LET'S TALK ABOUT THE BOOKS NOT IN BIBLE
The Apocrypha was a collection of texts located between the Old and New Testaments for "274" years before being controversially removed in 1885, and not by KingJames.
"Before I proceed, I would like to address individuals who maintain that the 1611 (KJV) represents the only authentic Bible, due to its originality. It is imperative to note that the 1611 KJV is not the original.
It is an irrefutable historical fact that the 1611 (KJV) Bible originally contained the Apocrypha. However, it was later removed and eventually disappeared from English Bibles entirely.
So, Respectfully, before you raise your religious objections, let us tackle this head-on. We need to dive deep, scrutinize the details, and leave no stone unturned.
Let us approach this with a clear, critical mindset. “Let us cross T’s and dot I’s.
Sorry, I cannot provide copyrighted text from your "personal Bibles." However, I can provide the following summary that may help answer questions based on the Bibles own text.
Are you aware that there are seventy-five different sources listed in the Books of Chronicles.
Yet these writings, for whatever reason, were not included in Scripture.
The Bible references some other inspired books within itself. Nevertheless, these books are not the lost books of the Bible. That is a whole other story.
They were never considered inspired by those choosing what people should read and were never put in the collection of books considered part of the Bible.
Let us check these out...

Reviewing some,
In the Book of Numbers there is a quotation from the. “Book of the Wars of the Lord.” It says the following:
Wherefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the LORD. Numbers 21:14- “Book of Jasher,” or the “Scroll of the Upright One “is mentioned as recording Joshua’s long day. Scripture says:
Scripture speaks of the number of proverbs and songs of Solomon. We read about this in the Book of 1 Kings. It says:
He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs numbered a thousand and five. He described plant life, from the cedar of Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of walls. He also taught about animals and birds, reptiles and fish. (1 Kings 4:32-33 NIV)
There is reference to a book called, “The Acts of Solomon, “or the “Annals of Solomon.” We read about this work in First Kings:
As for the other events of Solomon’s reign - all he did and the wisdom he displayed - are they not written in >>the book of the annals of Solomon? (1 Kings 11:41 NIV)
The Annals of the Kings of Israel.” It says the following:
The other events of Jeroboam’s reign, his wars and how he ruled, are written in the book of the annals of the kings of Israel. (1 Kings 14:19 NIV)
There is the mention of a work titled, “The Annals of the Kings of Judah.” We read about this in First Kings. It states:
As for the other events of Abijah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam. (1 Kings 15:7 NIV)
The prophets Samuel, Nathan, and Gad are said to have recorded events in the life of King David. The Bible says:
As for the events of King David’s reign, from beginning to end, they are written in the records of Samuel the Seer, the records of Nathan the prophet and the records of Gad the seer. (1 Chronicles 29:29 NIV)
A prophet named Shemaiah, and a seer named Iddo, recorded the acts of king Rehoboam. The Bible says the following:
As for the events of Rehoboam’s reign, from beginning to end, are they not written in the records of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer that deal with genealogies? There was continual warfare between Rehoboam and Jeroboam. (2 Chronicles 12:15 NIV)
The Annals of Jehu-The Book of Jehu is a lost text that may have been written by the Biblical prophet Jehu ben Hanani, who was one of King Baasha's contemporaries. The book is described in 2 Chronicles 20:34: "Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is mentioned in the book of the Kings of Israel."
The Acts of Uzziah
is a lost text that may have been written by Isaiah, who was one of King Uzziah's contemporaries. The book is described in 2 Chronicles 26:22. The passage reads: "Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, did Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, write."
Jehu the King is said to have recorded the acts of another King, Jehoshaphat. This is also recorded in the Book of Chronicles:
The other events of Jehoshaphat’s reign, from beginning to end, are written in the annals of Jehu son of Hanani, which are recorded in the book of the kings of Israel. (2 Chronicles 20:34 NIV)
Acts of Uzziah
The prophet Isaiah recorded the acts of King Uzziah. The Chronicler wrote the following:
The other events of Uzziah’s reign, from beginning to end, are recorded by the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz. (2 Chronicles 26:22 NIV)
Laments of Jeremiah
There is a mention of the laments of Jeremiah. We read about this in Second Chronicles. It says:
Jeremiah composed laments for Josiah, and to this day all the men and women singers commemorate Josiah in the laments. These became a tradition in Israel and are written in the Laments. (2 Chronicles 35:25 NIV)
The sun stood still and the moon stood motionless while the nation took vengeance on its enemies. The event is recorded in the Scroll of the Upright One. The sun stood motionless in the middle of the sky and did not set for about a full day. (Joshua 10:13 NET)
This book seems to be well-known to the readers of Joshua. Yet, we know nothing about it.

It is important to study the Bible in its entirety to truly understand the complete message. The Bible is not just the word of Yah, it is a school master, a collection of teachings passed down through the centuries; There are so many collections of teachings, it is an anthology of ancient writings by numerous authors over many centuries. To fully grasp its meaning and significance, one must dedicate time to exploring and comprehending the entirety of Yah's writings.
Study on y’all, discover our redeemer also in the written words.

The following is not my work ,it is credited to “WWW.GREATSITE.COM “ I introduce it for the purpose of t a timeline of history of the “Apocrypha”
With that being said, I would like us to search it out the information provided
It was written Friday, June 25, 2010 by Admin
“While Noah Webster, just a few years after producing his famous Dictionary of the English Language, would produce his own modern translation of the English Bible in 1833; the public remained too loyal to the King James Version for Webster’s version to have much impact. It was not really until the 1880’s that England’s own planned replacement for their King James Bible, the English Revised Version (E.R.V.) would become the first English language Bible to gain popular acceptance as a post-King James Version modern-English Bible. The widespread popularity of this modern-English translation brought with it another curious characteristic: the absence of the 14 Apocryphal books.”
“Up until the 1880’s every Protestant Bible (not just Catholic Bibles) had 80 books, not 66! The inter-testamental books written hundreds of years before Christ called “The Apocrypha” were part of virtually every printing of the Tyndale-Matthews Bible, the Great Bible, the Bishops Bible, the Protestant Geneva Bible, and the King James Bible until their removal in the 1880’s! The original 1611 King James contained the Apocrypha, and King James threatened anyone who dared to print the Bible without the Apocrypha with heavy fines and a year in jail. Only for the last 120 years has the Protestant Church rejected these books and removed them from their Bibles. This has left most modern-day Christians believing the popular myth that there is something “Roman Catholic” about the Apocrypha. There is, however, no truth in that myth, and no widely accepted reason for the removal of the Apocrypha in the 1880’s has ever been officially issued by a mainline Protestant denomination.”
