Answering some questions (just a passerby looking for something) and thought I'd offer some unsolicited thoughts.
Q: "I never understand Why people want to know what Not Canonized scripture means?
WHY is not the King James Bible good enough for you?"
A:The Apocrypha was in the King James Bible up until the 19th century and in speaking of Ecclesiasticus, it was regarded as practical wisdom in the least and holy writ at most depending on which church "father" you regard. James, as in the brother of our Messiah, for instance, appears to reference the book several times in his epistle.
Next question...
Who is Esau? Two passages and one non-Biblical source to get your journey started...
1) Ezekiel 35
2) Obadiah
3) The Jewish Encyclopedia, 1925 edition, Volume 5, page 41...
And you will have your answer...there is a reason why Yahushua (Jesus) said these things:
Matthew 12:34
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
And John the Baptist said it as well - arriving to TWO WITNESSES.
And this:
John 7:19
19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
-------------------
And ultimately, Jesus uses the same exact language to accuse the Pharisees as He does to mystery Babylon (which is the rulers of our generation - exciting times!):
Matthew 23:35
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
Revelation 16:6
6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
Revelation 18:24
24 And in her was found the BLOOD OF PROPHETS, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth...
And oh so much more if one had a mind to just look!
