Why Did The Vatican Remove 14 Books From The Bible?

by | Jan 3, 2017 | Did You Know, Opinion | 9 comments

Did you know that the bible was made up of around 80 books when the bible was first translated from Latin to English by the Vatican in 1611? However, 14 books were voted for removal in 1684. These books revealed some differences to todays bible such as Jesus’ name is spelled IESUS and pronounced Yahashua and many revelations from the “Wisdom of Solomon”, where it appears he talked of Jesus, despite Jesus not being around until 800 years after he died! That messes with the history just a little….

In the year 1611 the Bible was translated from Latin into English. Back then the Bible contained a total of 80 books and the last 14 books, which today have been excluded, made up the end of the Old Testament and were as follows:

1 Esdras
2 Esdras
Tobit
Judith
The rest of Esther
The Wisdom of Solomon
Ecclesiasticus
Baruch with the epistle Jeremiah
The Songs of the 3 Holy children
The history of Susana
bel and the dragon
The prayer for Manasses
1 Maccabees
2 Maccabees
In 1684 all of these books were removed from all versions except for a 1611 edition, which was the very first edition translated into English.

In this first edition you will also actually find that Jesus’ name is spelled IESUS and pronounced Yahashua. So why then does everyone continue to call him Jesus, when the letter J did not even being used at the time?

One of these books that is particularly interesting, is the “Wisdom of Solomon”. For those who don’t know Solomon is one of the most legendary characters from the Bible. He was the son of David and is alleged to be the wisest man that has ever lived. He is painted largely as a benevolent figure. But what you read in this book will make you question everything you were told to believe about him.

Observe the following excerpt;

Wisdom of Solomon 2:1-24

1 For the ungodly said reasoning with them selves, but not aright, our life is short and tedious and in death of a man there is no remedy: neither was there any man known to have returned from the grave.
2 For we are born at all adventure: and we shall be hereafter as though we had never been: for the breath of our nostrils is as smoke, and the little spark in the moving of our heart
3 Which being extinguished, our body shall be turned into ashes, and our spirit shall vanish as the soft air,
4 And our name shall be forgotten in time, and no man shall have our works in remembrance, and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist, that is driven away, with the beams of the sun, and overcome with the heat thereof.
5 For our time is very shadow that passeth away; and after our end there is no returning: for it is fast sealed, so that no man cometh again.
6 Come on there for let us enjoy the good things that are present: and let us speedily use the creatures like as in youth.
7 Let us fill ourselves with costly wine and ointments: and let no flower of the Spring pass by us.
8 Let us crown ourselves with rosebuds, before they be withered:
9 Let none of us go without his part of our voluptuousness: let us leave tokens of our joyfulness in every place: for this is our portion and our lot is this.
10 Let us oppress the poor righteous man, let us not spare the widow, nor reverence the ancient gray hairs of the aged.
11 Let our strength be the law of justice: for that which is feeble is found to be nothing worth.
12 Therefore let us lie in wait for the righteous; because HE is not of our turn, and HE is clean contrary to our doings. He upbraideth us with our offending of the law, and ojecteth to our infamy the transgression of our education.
13 HE professeth to have the knowledge of the MOST HIGH, and calleth HIS self the child of the LORD.
14 HE was made to reprove our thoughts
15 HE is grievous unto us even to behold, for HIS life is not like other men’s, HIS ways are of another fashion.
16 We are esteemed of HIM as counterfeits: HE abstaineth from our ways as from filthiness: HE pronounceth the end of the just to be blessed, and maketh HIS boast that GOD is HIS father.
17 Let us see if HIS words be true: and let us prove what shall happen in the end of HIM.
18 For if the just man be the Son of THE MOST HIGH, HE will help HIM and deliver HIM from the hands of HIS enemies.
19 Let us examine HIM with despitefulness and torture, that we may know HIS meekness and prove HIS patience.
20 Let us condemn HIM with a shameful death: for by HIS own mouth HE shall be respected…..

This raises a number of important questions

Who is Solomon speaking of killing with a “shameful death”?
Why did the Vatican vote to have these 14 books removed from the Bible?
Why did Solomon sound so crazy and evil in this book?
It seems that Solomon was speaking of Jesus. But Jesus was born roughly 900 years after his death. Could he have prophesied Jesus’ coming? Let’s consider why this could be who Solomon was talking about;

They killed the SON with a shameful death
The SON’s actions or fashions were different from everyone else’s
HE claims to be and IS the child of The MOST HIGH
He was a righteous poor man who would look at Solomon and others like him as “counterfeits”.
HE professeth to have knowledge of The MOST HIGH
Then listen to what Solomon has to say:

HE was made to reprove (criticize) our thoughts
We are esteemed of HIM as counterfeits: HE abstaineth from our ways as from filthiness: HE pronounceth the end of the just to be blessed, and maketh HIS boast that GOD is HIS father
For if the just man be the Son of THE MOST HIGH, HE will help HIM and deliver HIM from the hands of HIS enemies.
And one last thing I would like to point out is when Solomon says;

Let us oppress the poor righteous man, let us not spare the widow, nor reverence the ancient gray hairs of the aged.
This really disrupts everything we thought we knew. Solomon really and truly sounds evil. He is also alleged to be the wisest man in history.

Interestingly, Solomon is a man who was engulfed in the occult, he worshiped multiple gods and was weak for women. And the famous Temple of Solomon is considered to be the spiritual birth place of Freemasonry, a movement that is (at the highest levels) associated with pulling the strings of major global events and argued to be the true controlling power of our world.

Whatever is really going on here, we should certainly research it further.

    Most of the books you said are no in the Bible are really in the Bible.. Which Bible do you read???

    Stop sending false information to the black reading public…Baruch comes before Ezekiel in The Holy Bible…And Proverbs come before Ecclesiastes all in the Old Testament

    Malachi comes before Maccabees in the Old Testament. People, research these things when it comes to the Bible..

    In the very first verse of chapter 2 Wisdom of Solomon, he clearly is stating “the ungodly said reasoning with themselves………”, not that his own sentiments. Also I’m curious to how in ch2 v9 the word “joyfulness” and v12, “ojecteth” are in this scripture if the letter “J” didn’t exist yet.

      Pace, this is the writer’s opininon,,the devil is busy roaming the earth seeking those whom he can devour..don’t buy into this..where is the proof to prove that these books were extracted..does the writer claim to have the original transcript…lies, lies, and more lies to distort the teachings found in the King James Bible.

    The books comprise The Apocrypha, which is, in fact, found in the New Revised Standard Version [NSRV] and that one IS used by Catholic churches. I would refer you to the info here – https://www.biblegateway.com/quicksearch/?qs_version=NRSV&quicksearch=Esdras&begin=17&end=85.

    If you click on the ‘bible book list’ link, you’ll see all the Apocryphal books listed. The Catholics didn’t take it out; the English took it out.

    The author of this article clearly does not understand what they are reading. Solomon was talking about how the ungodly think, not he himself! The first verse the author quoted, clearly stated that.

      Solomon was also quick to acknowledge that he, himself, was an ungodly man on a lot of accounts.

    Solomon was truly the wisest man on earth. None before him nor after him, but he sure wasn’t the smartest man. Joseph, who fled from adultery, had more integrity and moral strength unlike Solome, who and 700 wives and 300 concubines. Moreover, as for the missing books, we have to take into consideration what happened at the Council of Nicea. They shaped what is now called “christianity.”

    Study the Council of Nicea 1&2 and you guys will have a better understanding of the process that went into creating the Bible.

      That is erroneous information, as you should know by now.

      The “creation” of the Bible, which came from ancient texts and manuscripts written by ancient EASTERNERS AND AFRICANS, was translated through the Council, not created BY the Council.

      In essence, they rewrote what was already written and had already existed for nearly a quarter of a million years, but still managed to survive.

      The “Bible” is nothing more than translated stories, songs, poems, and letters/epistles that were written by the men of the East and ancient Africa long before there was such a thing as a ‘Bible’. Mistranslated in many areas, to be sure — but the nature and complexity of it, its common threads, remains steadfast in spite of the mistranslations.
