Anointed Staff

Extra-canon as a public-domain study shelf

Open Extra-canon on the desk and you are not leaving the Bible window behind. The chapter stays available. The shelf is beside it.

What ships

Anointed Staff ships verified public-domain English for a growing library — Jubilees and 2 Baruch (Charles), Nag Hammadi titles from Zinner / Mattison dedications, Acts of Thomas (James 1924), Gutenberg Goetia and the 1830 Book of Mormon, Scheible Moses books, Thunder and Archons, plus Gospels.net / Enoch / Pistis writings. Each work carries a credit footer. Settings → About lists the rights posture in plain language.

They are not the sixty-six. The Apocrypha that belongs with Protestant Scripture already lives in the Bible window. Extra-canon is the wider historical shelf: Enoch, Sophia, Fathers, Hermetic study texts, world canons — labeled so a reader can tell which is which.

What it refuses

Modern copyright wrappers do not get a free ride. Brill / Coptic Gnostic Library Project English, sacred-name “restored” editions without a PD dedication, and ritual instruction packaging stay out. Hermetic and world shelves are historical study, not a how-to for seals or ceremony.

If a title cannot clear a rights gate, it does not ship. That is slower than scraping. It is the point.

How to use it on the desk

  1. Open Extra-canon from the rail while a chapter is open.
  2. Filter by shelf (Enoch, Sophia, Gospels.net, Fathers, Hermetic, …) or search.
  3. Read the credit on the work. Use Ask about this only when you want the local model — and only after you have turned a model on in Settings.
  4. Optional Quiet music is offline; it ducks under Hear and Listen.
