Yet we still don't have an Apocrypha for the MEV. When I had spoken to Jim, he had responded positively to my suggestion that the MEV should have an Apocrypha so that it could be useful to Catholic/Orthodox readers (possibly one adapted from the WEB Apocrypha to speed up the process), but as far as I know, the needle never moved beyond that. I don't see the publisher doing anything about it, since they currently seem interested in selling their translation only to Charismatics/Pentecostals.

The King James Bible translators did NOT consider the Apocrypha to be inspired Scripture. They came right out and said it.
The Apocryphal Booksโจ
And the other Books (as Hierome saith) the Church doth read for example of life and instruction of manners; but yet doth it not apply them to establish any doctrine; such are these following:
Their reasons for not accepting the Apocrypha as Scripture are listed on page 185-186 of the book Translators Revived, by Alexander McClure. The seven reasons are basically as follows:
1. Not one of them is in the Hebrew language like the rest of the Old Testament books.
2. Not one of the writers lays any claim to inspiration.
3. These books were never acknowledged as sacred Scriptures by the Jewish church, and therefore were never sanctioned by our Lord.
4. They were not allowed a place among the sacred books, during the first four centuries of the Christian church.
5. They contain fabulous statements, and statements which contradict not only the canonical Scriptures, but themselves. For example, in the Books of Maccabees alone, Antiochus Epiphanes dies three times in three places!
6. It inculcates doctrines at variance with the Bible, such as prayers for the dead and sinless perfection.
7. It teaches immoral practices, such as lying, suicide, assassination and magical incantation.
Please note in the photo that (1) they (the KJV translators) placed the Apocrypha after Malachi and before Matthew, not blending it in with the the other books, (2) they called its whole section "Apocrypha," not listing "Esdras" at the top of the page, as they did with Malachi on the opposite page, and (3) after Malachi ends we see the note "The end of the prophets," a clear indication that the Apocrypha is something very different than the inspired prophets.
King James himself said, "As to the Apocriphe bookes, I OMIT THEM because I am no Papist " - King James, 1599, Basilicon Doron, page 13... The 39 Articles say, "And the other Books (as Hierome saith) the Church doth read for example of life and instruction of manners; but yet doth it not apply them to establish any doctrine".

Wow. Has this guy never read what the KJV translators said? George Abbot, "Heere is a most manifest distinction between the Canonical and the Apocryphall, and a signification that these inferior volumes were only read, to such as were novices in the faith, but they were not accounted authentical & unquestionable." Arthur Lake, "we hold that which they confesse, that the Word written in the Canonicall books is undoubtedly signed with Thus saith the Lord of Hostes; as for the Apocryphall Scirptures, not only the Fathers, but their owne men have branded them for Bastards, before ever we challenged them; therefore doe not wee recommend them to people further than they agree with the Bookes Canonicall." Thomas Sanderson "your popish Scripture as being none of my word, but the word of the devil, so false and adulterated, so poisoned, and full of corruptions"
Sure "Scripture" can mean writings, but to put the Apocrypha on the level of the God-breathed writings is wrong and especially to try to force that on the KJV. Just look at the discussions at the Synod of Dordt.
