Why did the council of Ephesus reject the Apocrypha?

Actually there were 3 councils of Ephesus over the years 431 to 475, and the two later councils seemed to spend their time rejecting the deliberations of the earlier councils and anathematised their members. And the dictionary definition of the word Apocrypha, is: "Biblical or related writings not forming part of the accepted canon of Scripture" So the council, on its own volition, decided to reject or accept the written word of God. The Bible, or 'the Canon of Scripture' is The Word of God, so it is God's prerogative to accept it.

How many times has the Bible been changed up till now?

Repeatedly.First Council of Nicaea (325)First Council of Constantinople (381)Council of Ephesus (431)Second Council of Ephesus (449)Council of Chalcedon (451) repudiatedSecond Council of Constantinople (553)Third Council of Constantinople (680-681)Quinisext Council, also called Council in Trullo [2] (692)Second Council of Nicaea (787)First Council of the Lateran (1123)Fourth Council of the Lateran (1215)Second Council of Lyon (1274)First Council of the Vatican (1870; officially, 1870-1960)At each of these ecumenical councils (not all of the councils, incidentally), there were definitive changes in the content and interpretation of scripture, including the addition of some books/passages and the removal of others and whether or not Jesus was THE son of God or just A son of God....Then of course there are parts that were dramatically altered WITHOUT a council for personal gain. One great example of this was Henry VIII, who, in a break from the Catholic Church, "tweaked" the contents of the Bible to allow himself to divorce his current wife.And then there were the couple hundred years of doctrinal changes occurring as a war between the pope in Spain and the Pope in Italy vied for control of Catholicsm (Italy won) in 1534-1549.So.. yeah, the Bible has definitely been changed.
