Memes aside, as a Catholic I feel the need to point out that there's no difference in terms of Books when it comes to the Protestant and Catholic/Eastern Orthodox versions of the New Testament. The debate was over the Deuterocanon and books in the old testament, because the Ecumenical Councils that decided the biblical canon included books in the Christian Old testament like Tobit, Maccabees, parts of Esther, Wisdom, Sirach, etc. that aren't part of the Pharisaic/Rabbinic Old Testament (sorry if anyone finds the former description offensive, but it's important for the framing of the church's interpretation/perspective of the OT). All of them were part of the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the OT given to greek jewish communities before the church even existed) and many of them have been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls. Not gonna argue over which is correct, but just clarifying. There are parts of the non-canonical books that are reflected in VERY old artwork and such from times before the church was organized (like Mary giving birth in a cave), but the councils ruled them as apocryphal, and historians mostly agree. Now, on that note, some of the texts like the first of Clément's Epistles (the later ones are spurious) and the Didache (which is THE oldest non-biblical Christian text) are SUPPORTED by historians and the church alike and so are kept separate from scripture as reference for the sake of study and church history, but are in NO WAY considered as authoritative as Scripture. More as supplemental to doctrine and study in the same way as the other writings of the Church Fathers.

Some non canonical texts pre date the canonical gospels, such as the Gospel of Thomas and the Didache.

Hey, I know this is an old vid and there is no chance of you seeing this, but i just felt let getting it out there. I have been, for most of my young life, an apostate of the protestant religion. I fully believe that my leaving of the faith was inevitable from a young age when looking back on my life, who I am, and who I was. I don't think that anything could've changed that outcome in my life. If there is someone who designed us, then they put it within my nature to leave the church. From a very, very young age, I had questions about things, and if the question didn't align with the beliefs of those around me, or they didn't have an answer, they wouldn't seek to find me an answer or challenge their own beliefs, they would just say "you only need to have faith," and faith just wasn't good enough for me. It was all the same people who said that I needed to love and respect my father despite the fact that he would blame and punish me for his shortcomings as a husband, father, and human being. Just have faith, just love. So, I stopped believing. I saw the hipocracies within the bible and those who follow it, and found I could not justifiably put faith into it or those who do. I also found that I didn't need religion. I know that I am a good person, I have meaning within my life as defined by who I am and who I want to be. I don't believe in nor do I need a promise or threat of an afterlife to live my life. I'm just going to live while I'm alive. But for the longest time, despite saying otherwise, I held a huge grudge on Christianity, and further Christians. It did not help when a lot of people say things like "oh you don't have a problem with Christianity, people pervert the religion, but the religion itself didn't harm you." To me, that line has always infuriated me as it is that very religion that justified the way people treated and talked to me as I was questioning the religion. But I found you and your videos. I first saw one by suggestion of a friend that I watch you FNaF lore video, as I am a huge FNaF friend and they loved your content, so they wanted to introduce me to you with something I was already very familiar with (and the only video I've seen where I actually already knew everything you said haha). But as I kept watching, I fell more in love with your content, and then I learned that you were a Christian and, for the first time, I didn't really feel anything negative about it. You have such a way of talking and describing things that is both charasmatic, inviting, and entertaining. You make people want to feel passionate about the things you are passionate about, you draw us in, and even if it's something we don't like, you make us want to watch it, for your sake more than anything, and we come out on the other end feeling better for it. I'm not going to lead this message into saying that you reconverted me to Christianity. I don't think anyone or anything less than Jesus Christ himself, undeniably in front of me, could do that. That being said, you have helped me overcome my distaste in the Christian religion and, although I am not a Christian and do not hold the Bible to be holy or historical, you have revitalized my childhood interest in the lore of Christian faith. While I don't think I'll study the Bible like I used to, I definitely enjoy hearing those who do and are passionate about it talk about the stories that they hold dear,.

His videos delve into very complex topics, but they are fascinating as all hell (no pun intended). He also speaks from a Jewish perspective, but he isn't afraid to historicize heavily controversial topics such as the origin of God (Yahweh). He speaks very eloquently and with great intelligence. Can't recommend him enough.

Actually, as a Catholic, the answer I've always heard about the "brothers" of Christ is simply that the original Aramaic word used in the Gospels does not exclusively mean "son of my father and mother" - 1st Century Aramaic had no specific word for cousins and other similar relatives and simply used "brother" and "sister" as a general catch-all term for them. As far as I've heard, the Catholic position is that Jesus' "brothers" were actually his cousins.

Yea as a Catholic and a guy who enjoys linguistics, it's an interesting seeing how the translators of old (the Alexandrian sages, St. Jerome, Aquila of Sinope, the priests of Douai, the ecclesiastics of King James I of England) and the more contemporary ones (Mgr. Ronald Knox, the RSV-translators, etc.) have to deal with peculiarities that exist in old languages and that certainly haven't died in modern languages. After all, even in Tagalog our system of family reference names doesn't really distinguish between older cousins and older brothers. Plus, I believe channels like NativLang have covered how there are some 8 different "family systems" in linguistics.

So a person with a Christian/Catholic background that kind of fizzled away over time, I highly respect your perspectives on these non-canon biblical texts. Just simply being open to them while also displaying your innate devotion to your own religion is awesome. I truly don't even know what I believe in anymore, but to see your beliefs so steadfast while studying these very blatantly blasphemous things is inspiring. As you said, knowledge should be hidden to no one, even if it's text that can't confirmed.

As a muslim who has particularly a interest in the 3 abrahamic religions and their history. I can say: I appreciate the effort u made into this video. Some books were in my "to-read list", so it's good to know which ones I can take with a pinch of salt. I finished recently "The Shepherd of Hermas", it really showed the early christians (also where in the list would it belong,; historical?) and I am currently reading the dead sea scrolls, but since I do this in my free time, it takes me some time to finish it. Btw: I don't read to convert, I am a faithfull, practicing muslim, since I already believe in Jesus pbuh as the messiah, I wanted to look at how he was viewed in the early churches. So before people are trying to convert me, don't worry I am critical of any religion so I know what I believe. Lastly I want to finish with a sentence from the Quran, to illustrate how Muslims view Jesus pbuh; [The Day] when Allāh will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, remember My favor upon you and upon your mother when I supported you with the Pure Spirit [i.e., the angel Gabriel] and you spoke to the people in the cradle and in maturity; and [remember] when I taught you writing and wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel; and when you designed from clay [what was] like the form of a bird with My permission, then you breathed into it, and it became a bird with My permission; and you healed the blind [from birth] and the leper with My permission; and when you brought forth the dead with My permission; and when I restrained the Children of Israel from [killing] you when you came to them with clear proofs and those who disbelieved among them said, "This is not but obvious magic." Quran [5:110]

The more you study Islam alongside Christianity and Judaism, the more you realize (1) how much of Judaism was an attempt to remember the distant past by iron age people with all kinds of ridiculous superstitious laws, (2) how much of Christianity is based on a couple centuries of fan fiction devoted to rumors about a guy who pissed off a few Romans, written by somewhere gullible people who desperately needed some hope in their lives, and (3) how much Islam derives from how a man with a seizure disorder trying to recite those Christian and Jewish texts by memory, getting key details wrong and revising others for literary effect - and then deciding to use it to create a conquest empire.

​@@twistedblood234 the biblical numbers issue is a famous one. Depending on which book you are looking at, it's either the use of numbers for poetic effect (especially in Genesis and Exodus, but also Revelations) or a scribal error made when the next was being copied by hand. *Biblical inerrancy" is a fairly modern Protestant idea. Few literate Christine or Jews would have promoted that idea at all for the first 1800 years during which the Christian Bible has existed. Any modern person who knows the basics of how the Bible came to be rejects it too, even if they are Christian.

I really wish a non-annoying and non-brainwashed Christian would explain to me how they explain away all of the scientific findings in the last century or two. I know the full story of Adam and Eve, and it’s a great story, but it’s too far fetched to be real. Evolution has immense evidence to back it up, and the big bang theory while relatively new ALSO has a fair bit of evidence. Thing is, I really want some form of God to be real. So long as I’m not sent to suffer for eternity for living a pretty standard life. I want to believe that I’ll get to see my grandpa who was like a father to me again, but I just can’t. It’s like believing in magic. I want it to be real so bad, but nothing I’ve ever heard in my adult life has come close to convincing me. It just goes against everything we can prove. “Have faith” says the Christians, as they likely spend their lives devoting themselves to nothing. Help me understand. Because I can’t help but feel that religion is nothing more than a coping mechanism for humanities greatest fear (death), or a way to find power and wealth like so many religions have done in the past.

This was an awesome video! Hoping to see more like it! I really appreciated all of the research you obviously put in, and the Christian foundation you displayed throughout. It was really refreshing watching someone who holds Scripture in high authority break these down to lay man terms. It really cleared up a lot of my nagging thoughts about these weird books that I've seen floating around agnostic circles and that critics of Christianity like to parade around. One thing that I wanted to mention is that at 40:07 I'd say that it's possible that they were all in Jerusalem at the time given it was Passover and Jews made pilgrimages to Jerusalem during this time. And your section on the Narrative of Joseph was spot on. I felt all of that. "I wouldn't want to be that guy right now" is a _nice_ way of putting it.

It may have been in shifts, but I paid attention to all the lost books. Your longform content is my favorite!

The Book of Enoch is probably the one I find the most fascinating, not because I believe it to be real but because if there's any figure in the Old Testament I WISH we knew more about, it's him. Like, Genesis just casually throws him in in the list of Adam's descendants and implies he was so righteous or learned that he ascended (or "God took him")... and it's just never addressed again by anyone in the entire rest of the Bible. Even now speculation abounds about what it means, whether it's that he uniquely died and went to heaven unlike EVERYONE ELSE in the OT prior to Christ opening the gateway to salvation, or if it's being wholly literal. And either case has INSANE implications about the man himself and the very nature of salvation during that era (at the very least). I know the general interpretation from old traditions is that he was so righteous that rather than let him be tainted by the world God let him die before his time, but even that is extrapolating a lot from very little. And as far as the contents of the Books themselves, they're bizarre and fascinating to say the very least.

I love seeing the people in the comments from all religious background appreciating Biblical lore.

I actually love the long, in-depth videos discussing and theorizing about Christianity. I'm not religious myself, but learning about it is still very fascinating to me. But it's a massive subject that's hard to breach into, especially the weird, obscure stuff. The combination of your talent for thorough research, having a friendly, casual vibe while also clearly being incredibly passionate, your ability to balance humor and presentation with respect for the things you're talking about, and your... _Wendigoon-y_ personality makes it easy, engaging, and very entertaining to learn about. You always clarify that you're not trying to proselytize at people, but honestly, the disclaimer never even feels necessary; you don't give off a preachy vibe to begin with.

Hey Goon. I just wanted to say how encouraging it is to have an influencer who’s open and steadfast in their faith. Also you should do a video on the book on Enoch!

I think your religious videos are my favorite that you produce. I know most people will come here for the spooky stuff, but man, the way you talk about religion is so unique. I think most of that is that you're not afraid to talk about what other Christians are and I find that so very interesting, and has made me find my faith again and feel even stronger in my beliefs.

As one of those alleged "twelve people" who stayed from beginning to end, I had a great time watching and listening along. Lost books from the Bible have always been a fun topic for me to occasionally return to, and I loved seeing your take on them. I would definitely return for more. Gotta say though, I was expecting to see Enoch get mentioned in here, so its omission was a surprise for me. Not a deterrent or a disappointment; just a surprise. Maybe the Book of Enoch will be mentioned in a later video. Possibly? Hopefully?

Enoch is included in some versions of the Bible, namely the Ethiopian Bible, so as he said in the video, he’s not including any books that can be seen as canonical in any way.

Make sure to keep an open mind. One should never be afraid to doubt or ask questions. If anyone reacts negatively to genuine inquiry on these subjects, it is often wise to continue that line of questioning, if perhaps elsewhere.

Wendi, gotta say, whenever you talk about Christianity and all that, it reminds me - for the first time in my life ever since I lost my faith - why I was a believer when I was a kid. Why it made so much sense to just Trust, that I never needed any adults to push me towards the faith. I probably will never regain that sense of safety and security, but I felt the need to share it. You remind me of one of very few good moments I had at that time. It's a good thing. It makes me smile. Thank you for that.

I would love to hear more and please make the removed and debated books a series. This was something I was always curious about in catechism as a kid

"I believe there should be no closed doors when it comes to knowledge" is one of the most inspiring things I've heard from a Christian since I lost my own faith. Maybe if I had had a pastor as openminded as Wendigoon, I would still be a believer.

Don't blame humans for your belief. Blame the existence/nonexistance of god. Learn for yourself the slavery passages in Leviticus. Read about Jephthah's daughter. Read about Genesis' firmament, the fallacy of divine hiddeness, see how many legs Leviticus 20 says beetles and grasshoppers have, research how we have no original copies of Biblical books, learn how Moses never wrote the Torah and use that as a springboard for just how many authors there actually are who chopped and edited and twisted the Bible from a polythiestic text to a monotheistic one (Baal was actually considered a legitimate god, learn about it) I primarily cite divine hiddeness and god's condoning the fate of Jephthah's daughter as primary reasons that keep my from believing in, much less worshipping, Abrahamic gods. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

I also love the mule part, but just because of the way you introduce it. You introduce it as if the sisters just wandered into some random inn, clothed mule and all, and the idea that their response was even taken seriously by the innkeeper, just him being like "ah yes, I do believe that this mule, who is a mule, is also your brother. mhm. there's a miracle baby that might help in the inn, just letting you know." it's so goofy i love it
