Christadelphians follow the Protestant canon and deny canonical status to the deuterocanonical books (Tobit, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, 1-2 Maccabees). The Apocrypha is understood as valuable historical and spiritual literature but not as Scripture. This position aligns with Christadelphian emphasis on the Hebrew Bible and New Testament as the authoritative Scripture, and rejects the broader canon adopted by Catholic and Orthodox traditions.

The exclusion of the deuterocanonical books reflects Christadelphian commitment to the narrower Hebrew canon and the apostolic Scripture as the source of doctrinal authority. While the Apocrypha may be read for historical or devotional purposes, it is not cited as evidence for Christian doctrine.
