The '''Apocrypha''' refers to books of the Bible that are not considered part of the Biblical Canon - precisely which books varies between denominations.
The Protestant canon was formulated by [[Martin Luther]], the Catholic by the [[Council of Trent]]. For some time the [[King James Bible]] contained apocryphal books in a separate section.
Books apocryphal to the Protestant canon include the books of [[Manasseh]], [[Esdras]] and [[Tobit]].
