I probably also would not have realized that the "spirits in prison" were referring to the fallen angels and their dead offspring who are now the demons. One can also find just who the black goat that upon who's back all the sins of Israel were heaped from reading the old texts. I also discovered from the Book of Jasher who Nimrod was, among whom the nations were divided during the days of Peleg, and who Melshezek actually was. Please excuse the spelling.

These books are good for understanding. but they were not a part of the Bible. They stood alone. the main book that was taken
directly out of the Holy Bible
ON PURPOSE, was the
Apocrypha. So to be technical, this book is the main one you need to complete the KJV Bible... and I would also suggest you add the
Book of Josephus to your collection as this book explains just how wicked the Romans were towards the Israelites after they sacked Jerusalem. the "dashing babies against stones" practice originated with them, the Romans.
