My son for Christmas gave me a copy of the English translation of the Septuagint with Apocrypha,  Now for those that have never looked extensively into the Septuagint, it is the Greek Old Testament.  There is not the Gospels or books from what we know as the New Testament.   It is considered one of the three main control texts for translators of the Old Testament to other languages as it was the Greek translation of the original Hebrew text.   Interestingly the only book missing that you sometimes find in Apocrypha is the First Book of Enoch.  Even the translators at the time in BCE did not consider this a book to be included.

So why am I bringing this up?  I spent time comparing the Apocrypha books I have from the Catholic Bibles used for research I do and the Protestant versions to my Septuagint.   Huge differences can be seen in what was changed and deleted.   Gives you pause on what we are missing from other books.   The upside is that the meanings and intentions do not change.

I might be posting some of the more interesting difference as I explore more.
