== '''Deutorocanonical Scripture or Apocrypha''' ==
The word Deuterocanonical comes from the Greek words Deutero and canona meaning second to law. The word apocrypha Apocrypha comes from the Greek word ἀπόκρυφα, meaning hidden. According to Orthodox teaching they may be read for personal edification but are not authoritative for doctrine. They are included in the Orthodox [[Bible]] because they were included in the [[Septuagint]] which was in use at the time of [[Jesus]].
