Differences in major christian bibles

The Different Faces of the Christian Bible

As Christians, many of us assume that the Bible is a single, unified text. However, few realize that various Christian denominations have distinct versions of the Bible. While the majority of the books are shared, the differences are noteworthy.

Catholic Bible: 73 books, including 7 deuterocanonical books (Tobit, Judith, 1-2 Maccabees, Wisdom of Solomon, Ecclesiasticus, Baruch, and Letter of Jeremiah)
Protestant Bible: 66 books, excluding deuterocanonical books
Eastern Orthodox Bible: Includes Psalm 151, 4 Maccabees (in appendix), and Prayer of Manasseh (in appendix); considers Septuagint equally divinely inspired as Hebrew text
