The Lonely Canon by slaveofone
What follows is a list of Protestant Old Testament canonical books that do not appear to be quoted from, paraphrased, or alluded to in any New Testament document. I call it a lonely cannon because these books were left out, so to speak, from the overflowing spring that writers chose from in their compositions. It is quite possible that I have missed a reference to some verse from among these. If you run across one (or a supposed one), please comment below.
