Heidegger's Bible Handbook: OT Apocrypha: Chapter Outline

The Apocryphal Books of the Old Testament are defined, 1.  Whence are they called Apocryphal?  The answer to the נגנוזים/hidden books of the Hebrews.  The הארון/κιβωτὸς/ark of the Jews, 2.  The Apocryphal Books pertaining to this enumerated.  By Eusebius and others they were called Ecclesiastical Books and Hagiographa.  By the Ancients they were also improperly called Canonical and Divine, 3.  Their general argument is set forth, 4.  Their Canonical authority is opposed with seven arguments, and among them the suffrage of the Jewish and ancient Christian Church is explained, 5.  The fictitious distinction between Protocanonical and Deuterocanonical Books is exploded, 6.  The twofold notion of the Canon, proper and improper, is distinguished, and it is demonstrated that certain Fathers, and the Third Council of Carthage, included the Apocryphal Books in the Canon taken improperly, 7.  The cause and time of the Apocryphal Books being conjoined with the Canonical is elicited, 8.  Of old were they read in the Eastern and Western Church, elsewhere even publicly, 9.  The public reading and exposition of them is impugned, 10.  The question concerning their conjunction with the Canonical Books was ventilated back and forth and settled at the Synod of Dort, 11.  The chronology and edition of the Apocryphal Books.  That the old Latin translation was made out of Greek Codices, and that no definite edition exists, is demonstrated, 12.  The distribution of the Apocryphal Books, of which some are Ecclesiastical, some removed from the reading of the Church.  A Synoptic Table and Interpreters, 13.
