I’m nagging, I know, but…
The Episcopal Church has turned to I Maccabees in it’s Daily Office as of today. Much of the book will not be read, in fact only the first four chapters will be. It is one of several occasions in which the books of the Apocrypha are part of the church’s reading (Sirach being the most thoroughly read). For the Bible study in which I am engaged, I have been reading through some selections from II Maccabees. So, to refer to my post’s title, I am deep in the Apocryphal waters as it were.
