ArchivesHi ho Silver! re: the Apocrypha...
in reply to a message by Silver
The Apocrypha is not the Apocalypse...not so far as I know...
The Apocrypha is a set of five books, like the books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus etc etc) which were added to the Bible and then rejected at a later date as unsuitable (the exact order of events I don't know, so try googling it...). Tales of fighting dragons and whatnot, I seem to remember (can't think why they didn't want that in the Bible...).
