A curated reference to extracanonical works that intersect with canonical scripture without being part of the standard canon. The entries are short — reference-card length — and aimed at readers who meet one of these texts in a footnote or a sermon and want quick, reliable background.
These entries are not scripture and are not treated as such on SumBible. They are background for the curious reader.
Texts named in the Hebrew Bible or written in the Second Temple period that sit outside the Protestant and Latter-day Saint canons.
Jewish writings attributed to figures from the Hebrew Bible, composed in the Second Temple and early Roman periods.
Large archaeological discoveries — collections rather than single works — that bear on the canonical texts and on the broader religious world they belong to.
Restoration-era texts and projects outside the Standard Works that nevertheless belong to the Latter-day Saint theological heritage.
