A:Martin Luther scrapped the 7 apocryphal books, and this would eventually influence Protestant English translations. English exiles produced the Geneva Bible that omitted the apocrypha during the Catholic reign of Queen Mary. The first edition of the English King James Bible (KJV) reverted to including the seven books, but they were removed from the 1666 version.

What books are taken out of the Bible?

The books that form what is now known as the Bible were not originally written in order to be included in a 'Bible'. They were simply written to meet the religious or political purposes of their times. When, later, the concept of a collection of books, a 'Bible', came to the fore, some books were included and some were not.Until the first Bibles were compiled, there were no books in the Bible, to be taken out. It was merely a case of which of the many hundreds of potentially suitable books would be included, and which would not.Having said that, the Catholic Church included, and still includes, 15 'Deuterocanonical' books in its Old Testament. These were not included in the Hebrew Bible and, on the precedent of the Hebrew Bible, are not included in the Protestant Bible. Even the Catholic Church regards the Deuterocanonical books as not inspired in the same way as the canonical books are.
