context_page_description: Susanna, also called Susanna and the Elders, is a narrative included in the Book of Daniel by the Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches. It is one of the additions to Daniel, considered apocryphal by Protestants. It is listed in Article VI of the 39 Articles of the Church of England among the books which are read "for example of life and instruction of manners", but not for the formation of doctrine. It is not included in the Jewish Tanakh and is not mentioned in early Jewish literature, although the text does appear to have been part of the original Septuagint and was revised by Theodotion, Hellenistic Jewish redactor of the Septuagint text.
