Orthodox Bible

The Orthodox Bible is the version of the Bible used by the Eastern Orthodox Church, which includes additional books not found in the Protestant Bible. It consists of the Old Testament and New Testament, with the Old Testament following the Septuagint (an ancient Greek translation) rather than the Hebrew Bible. This version emphasizes a rich tradition of interpretation and theology unique to Orthodox Christianity, highlighting community and continuity in faith. The Orthodox Bible's inclusion of texts like the Book of Judith and the Wisdom of Solomon reflects this tradition and its historical context within Christianity.
