The Councils at Carthage and Hippo accepted 1 Esdras in their canons. This was apocryphal additions to the book of Ezra in the Septuagint. Yet the Council of Trent rejected these apocryphal writings. Also, consider that the early church was not one-sided: Origen, Melito, Athanasius (whose canon the 6th ecumenical council received), Cyril of Jerusalem, Gregory of Nazianzus, Hilary of Poitiers, Epiphanius, Basil the Great, Jerome, and Rufinus among others rejected the deuterocanon.
Luther did not arbitrarily remove the Apocrypha. He had particular reasons for placing it in a separate category, and those reasons were not simply based on his subjective opinion. Luther expressed both historical and theological reasons, following in the tradition of some of the great Biblical scholars that came before him, as well as expressing the same opinions as some of his contemporaries....Hope this helps...God Bless
i was hoping you could clarify on the statement about luther being responsable for the removal of the supposed apochraphal books as they were not removed from the kjv until the mid 1800s. my 1560 geneva and 1611 akj both contain the books as scripture and i see them as such .
He did not reject the books commonly called Apocrypha or Deuterocanonicals. He continued to use them for reading in the church, a practice which continues to this day in may Protestant denominations such as Lutherans, Episcopalians and so on.
Principal is not spelled correctly.
