True Old Testament Apocrypha
===The Apocrypha in Roman Catholicism and Protestant churches===
In an Orthodox Bible there are 49 books in the Old Testament canon. [[Roman Catholic]]s only accept seven so called Deuterocanonical books, so their Old Testament has a total of 46 books (sometimes counted as 47). Because [[Protestant]]s mistakenly reject the Septuagint altogether, their Old Testament canon has only 39 books.
 
===True Old Testament Apocrypha===
There are examples of false books from the Old Testament, there books are: Assumption of Moses, Ascension of Isaiah, Apocalypse of Elijah, Book of Enoch, Testament of the Twelve Patriarchs, and another Book of Maccabees. These books are not in the Old Testament canon of any church.
