It's the same today. If you buy a Tanakh, the Torah, Nevi'im, and the Ketuvim, what are the books of the Jewish publication, they will have the same books as a Protestant Old Testament. They'll just have them in a different order. Got it. So they group the prophets together differently. They don't have 1 and 2 Kings. They have Kings. They don't have 1 and 2 Chronicles.

It's just a different... It's the same books, just different... That's fine. ...order. So... So Luther says, okay, there's all this debate. I'm just going to stick with the core. I'm going to cut out the chaff, and I'm just going to—this is the Bible. However, Luther still includes them in a separate section, which he labels Apocrypha.

But to say that like Roman Catholics put them in or that Protestants took them out, I think is a little bit messy because there is historical precedence for both lists. But I would say that the strongest evidence, the earliest evidence is for the 66 that us Protestants stuck with. Because we said, what is scripture to the Jews? Yeah.
