[Mr. Lucky]

Luther didn't "try" to throw out any books of the Bible. Die Bibel contains all of the books your Bible does, even the Deuterocanonicals. The Lutheran view of these books is similar to that of a number of the early church fathers such as Athanasius, Cyril and Augustine; that is, "profitable and good to read" but not Scriptural. (Luther was an Augustinian).

[rzman21]

The Lutheran confessions cite the Deuterocanonicals as scripture paradoxically.
