The Apocrypha (or Deuterocanonical Books) are ancient texts written during the 400 years between the Old Testament and the New Testament of the Bible, accepted as biblical canon by some, but not all Christian denominations.

This slim hardback features books from the traditional Greek and Slavonic Bibles, as well as books used by Roman Catholics, such as Judith and Tobit. The Apocryphal texts are central background reading for anyone wishing to carry out a scholarly reading of the Bible and its context.

The New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition includes a considerable number of changes to the Apocrypha, for which a number of texts were consulted to reconstruct these books using the latest goals and methodology. Thirty years on from the publication of the NRSV, the NRSV Updated Edition makes extensive use of recent scholarship to produce a meticulously researched, rigorously reviewed, and faithfully accurate translation.

With substantial edits, revisions, and grammatical changes, its central value lies in its adherence to tradition and accuracy while also reflecting cultural differences and the sensibilities of modern audiences.
