I believe the Jews in general reject the idea that the Apocrypha is inspired.

"I believe the Jews in general reject the idea that the Apocrypha is inspired."

Is that an inerrant belief or a belief based upon Protestant tradition? In the first century there was a Pharisee canon, a Sadducee canon, an Essene canon and the Septuagint canon. Which of these represented the true and proper canon agreed to by all Jews "in General" and which by Greek speaking Jews?

The Jews regard Christians as renegade heretics. The mythical Council of Jamnia was supposed to deal with the Jewish repudiation of Christianity.
