Was God truly silent between Malachi and John the Baptist? And if so, why were books written during that period excluded from Scripture?

In Part 2 of this series, Scott Mitchell examines the growing claims surrounding the Apocrypha and Second Temple literature and asks an important question: did God intentionally preserve His Word exactly as He intended?

This episode explores the missing Ark of the Covenant, the corruption surrounding the Second Temple, and why Jesus consistently pointed back to “the Law and the Prophets” as the recognized authority of Scripture. Scott also examines the significance of the torn veil at Christ’s crucifixion, the prophetic role of John the Baptist, and the connection between Moses, Elijah, and the two witnesses of Revelation 11.

Throughout this study, Scripture itself becomes the standard for testing claims of hidden revelation, missing books, and modern prophetic movements.
