"'''Apocryphal'''" refers to sayings or works that are not authentic, or have doubtful authenticity. The adjective is often used in reference to quotes or references that are supposedly from the [[Bible]], but for which there is broad consensus that authenticity is lacking.

A common example is when people cite the apocryphal [[Essay:Adulteress Story|Adulteress Story]], typically to make a [[liberal]] argument.

Entire books that are considered to be apocryphal with respect to the Bible are called the "Apocrypha".
