Glossary
From Apocrypals Apocrypha
The following is a glossary of terms that commonly appear on the show.
Canonicity
Canonicity deals with what books are considered canon for various religions, churches, or denominations. For instance a book such as Judith is considered canon in the Catholic church, but not most protestant churchse, which would make it deuterocanonical, while a book such as The Acts of Peter and Paul is not apocryphal, as no one considers it canonical.
- Apocrypha
- Content that is not part of the canon for any common church
- Deuterocanon
- Content that is canon for some churches but not all (e.g: Judith, which is canon in the Catholic church, but not protestant churches)
- Pseudepigrapha
- Falsely-attributed texts (e.g: texts attributed to Paul but which were likely not actually written by him)
