He also examines the Apocrypha, which he considers to be useful for historical and devotional purposes, but not as authoritative as the canonical Scriptures.Overall, On The Canon Of The Scriptures Of The Old And New Testament, And On The Apocrypha is a scholarly work that provides a thorough and insightful analysis of the canon of the Scriptures and the Apocrypha.
