    I would like to know why is this book called Ecclesiasticus nor in my KJV Bible but instead

    Ecclesiastes that have 12 scriptures in my bible. But on here this book have I believe 40

    chapters. I've been in church many years and do know about the Bible, but have never

    seen this book before nor heard of it.

    Not every book that people claim should be in the Bible is in the Bible by God's design. Ecclesiastus in one book that has not been included by God in the Bible God has preserved for thousands of years.

    Dear Mark

    Many fake books have survived since ancient times, like the gospel of Judas and many more. Should we include them all in the Bible ?

    I believe God preserved the books of the Bible down through the centuries and the 66 books in the KJV bear evidence of having been divinely preserved while other records have not.

    Thank you Mark what you stated makes a lot of since. If God wanted it to be known he would had

    aloud it to be written for us to know. Why? Because nothing can take place without his permission

    especially his word, and he's in control of everything even satan.Most of us hardly understand what

    he has given us already or read it. We may read but most of us don't study, and there's a difference

    between reading the Bible and studying it; However, most people don't do neither.

    Ecclesiasticus is in the Apocrypha.

    Ecclesiastes is in the Bible.

    Both of those are on the red Link page you come into first.

    The Apocrypha are books thst we're not canonized into the Bible. I've only read them once.

    Explore everything out on the Link Page. Testimonies is a blessing. There's a wonderful Search Engine. It will fetch all scriptures on a single word. If it fetches a 1000 verses you may have to separate Old Testament from New Testament.

    Hello, notice how you spelled the two books differently. They are different books.
