I learned something new today, that I had never known. (department of redundancy department). Being a former Lutheran, I thought I should have known this.
Luther didn't think Esther belonged in the Bible, but he thought highly of 1 Maccabees and Sirach. He had a low opinion of Hebrews, and Revelation he thought to be of little value, being neither apostolic nor prophetic. The Epistle of James he termed "an epistle of straw."
