"Even if your assessment were true,..."

True or False, St. Jerome produced a Bible at the direction of Pope Damasus in 405 AD containing all of the Books later rejected by Luther?

Peace be with you

True or false: Jerome objected to including the Apocrypha but did it anyway?

False. As others on this very thread have already pointed out, Luther’s Bible contained all the same books, with much the same disclaimers as to the canonicity of certain books that Jerome included in the Vulgate.
