New Testament Apocrypha and Deuterocanonicals

The term deuterocanonical is sometimes used to describe the canonical antilegomena, those books of the New Testament which, like the deuterocanonicals of the Old Testament, were not universally accepted by the early Church, but which are now included in the 27 books of the New Testament recognized by almost all Christians. The deuterocanonicals of the New Testament are as follows:

• The Epistle to the Hebrews
• The Epistle of James
• The Second Epistle of Peter
• The Second Epistle of John
• The Third Epistle of John
• The Epistle of Jude
• The Apocalypse of John (also known as the Book of Revelation)
