Was the book of Judith a book in the Bible?

Answer 1

The three books of Tobit, Judith, and Esther follow the book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament. The Hebrew original has been lost. The Greek texts of Judith have three widely divergent forms, the Vulgate presents another very different text. They are "deuterocanonical", i.e. when the Jews closed their canon in the first century Judith was one of the books they did not accept, later Martin Luther rejected it as well.

another answer:

nope

Judith did not have a book devoted to her, as did Esther, but she did save her people by killing an Ammonite general if I remember correctly.

Answer 2

Yes, the book of Judith is considered part of the Old Testament in the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christian traditions, but it is not included in the Hebrew Bible or most Protestant Christian Bibles. It tells the story of a Jewish widow, Judith, who saves her people by deceiving and beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes.
