YES

Old Testament, Hebrew Scriptures Catholics: 46 books Canon: Official/authoritative list of divinely inspired texts ◦ ‘Standard’ of sacred scriptures Why are some canonical while some are not?

Differences Catholics: 46 OT Books Protestants: 39 OT Books These 7 books are called the Books of the Apocrypha ◦ Tobit, Judith, 1 & 2 Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch Fun Fact: Eastern Orthodox: 51 OT Books! Why the difference?
