Compare the Protestant and Roman Catholic Old Testaments

Biblical scrolls

The Roman Catholic Old Testament includes all books in the Protestant Old Testament plus others that Protestants call the Apocrypha. For the most part, the Roman Catholic Old Testament includes the books in the Septuagint (LXX), an ancient Greek translation of Jewish writings, which included not only the Tanakh but additional documents.
