When I say apocrypha I mean the 78 books, ie, the Catholic canon (which Menno Simons would have meant when he referred to the scriptures).

The main one I'm aware of (that Menno quotes) is Sirach. And it was the one book that the Jews were most inclined to accept into what became regarded as the OT.

Fun fact: I was toying and brainstorming the idea of a restricted Intranet that was to be solely used by Old Order and Conservative Anabaptists, I named it.... MennoNet, until I discovered that, hey - someone already came up with this name before I did! :D
