What are the Lost Books of the Bible

Biblical scripture, manuscripts, and books that are lost and forgotten.

The Bible does not include certain lost books.

The original Scriptures were manuscripts, codices, and letters, not books.
The early church condemned much of the early Bible scriptures for various reasons, such as:

• being written by unknown authors,

• their writings being unpleasant,

• not important enough,

• contrary to their beliefs and,

• Or in contrast to the majority of other writings.

Some scriptures were not well used or copied and were just forgotten.

Many of the lost biblical manuscripts are known and referenced in other writings.
 

The modern Bible mentions several of the lost books.

• Jesus mentions a book.

• The Lord mentions the Book of Jashar when speaking to Joshua.

• David, when he is mourning the death of Saul, mentions the Book of Jashar.

• The Bible mentions half a dozen other biblical books.

• The modern Bible does not include any of these books, even though it mentions them.
   

The question one should ask is

• If these scriptures were beneficial enough to be used by disciples of the past, our forefathers, so to speak, and Jesus himself, why were they not included in the modern Bible?

• Shouldn't these scriptures be considered sufficient and profitable for us in modern times?
   

Believers used many of these manuscripts before 1611.

• King James said, "Slim down the Bible" and "Make the Bible smaller so it can be carried easily."

• If the event in 1611 had not occurred, the Bibles currently found at the pulpit might still weigh a ton and be secured with chains to prevent them from falling or being taken, just as they were in the past.
  Consider that situation for a moment!​​
