The Complete Apocrypha: 2018 Edition with Enoch, Jasher, and Jubilees

I am trying to read this apocrypha, however the print is very small. It doesn’t include Adam and Eve and how they lived, when kicked out of the garden. This same publisher has a 2022 edition with 52 stories: has bigger FONT, 700+pages! Yippee! I love a good, lengthy book. This translation, is easy to read. When I read the KJV Bible. I actually wrote on one of the pages, ‘Does God even like women?’ I was so perplexed as there are so few women who do amazing things. However this apocrypha is full of women and men who actually do miracles and godly things. I’m not a women’s libber. But gosh, it’s so nice to see women as something more than concubines.I see why the governing bodies, in those days, took out these chapters. Also, Enoch is NOT a flat earther! Ridiculous. He says he went to the “four cornerstones” of the earth: N-S-E-W, in my opinion. Not to the edges of the flat world. I am sending this back, it’s too hard to pick up and read. I’m 1.75 readers and by page ten, I’d say I adapted to the font. But, I want to pick it up and have the first sentence readable. There is a large print, by this publisher. It looks ridiculously large. 9 verses to a page. If you’re elderly, that mightBe perfect for you. If you’re a middle age house wife, or a ‘honey-doer’ then get the newest edition. Such incredible stories. I’m happy I got it. But I’m sending it back for the larger font. I’m excited to read it, as a whole: 52 books.Rapture is coming. God bless you.

2024 Revision of 2018 editionAfter purchasing this particular version, I looked deeper into the negative reviews. This is my first time purchasing this. I’ve read quite a bit of Enoch and have heard of many of the others, but I’ve never done my own research this far. Reading the negative reviews told me what to look for.1- All of the pages are there2- All of the books are where the Table of Contents says it will be.3- None of the books are “missing” chapters.3A- Begins with Esther, chapter 11. The first 10 are in the Bible.3B- Any omitted chapters are acknowledged for; as in recognizing we do no have them, but we do have fragments.3C- Fragments are labeled as such. Which tells us that again, we just don’t have them. They are lost, never found, destroyed…. Gone. Not omitted.4- Easy to read print. Not a 2 or 6 as I had seen some claim. (I’m sure they were just exaggerating.) I included a side by side with my standard sized bible for you to see the comparison.Keep in mind, my knowledge of the contents included in this book is minute. But I can tell you that it very beautifully does have everything it says it does. The cover is very nice. I am happily satisfied with this purchase. Not one single complaint.I’m sorry to those who bought lemons. But thank you for your reviews. I was excited to sit for as long as it took (2hours 😁) and see what this book has and make sure it was all there. It actually was fun.I really hope my review helps you decide which version would be best fitting for you.

Information that reflects historical events.

This has been a daily read for months now. Love it. The content collection, of course, is expansive. I don't enjoy reading on screens, so I haven't bothered to look at the digital extras. This is my first read through most of these books so I can't speak to the integrity of the LSV translation, except to say that it's easy enough for me to read and it's easily understandable. Beyond the individual books included, there's extra material that I've enjoyed, including some info about CCC (the publishing org), all of which have been useful. I like the book's organization, formatting, and typesetting. I also really like the way the pages feel and look. The pages are much hardier than I expected, and they present themselves as as being historic or ancient, which adds to the appeal. I wasn't excited about the inclusion of QR codes, sprinkled throughout, that lead to background videos, but they've been surprisingly useful too.You might want to consider adding a pen/pencil holder and some ribbon bookmarks like you see in the pictures.
