------------------------ The apocryphal books of the Bible were originally included in the Christian Old Testament when the Christian leaders did not really know which books the Jews regarded as sacred. Eventually it was discovered that these books were among those not included in the Jewish canon. The apocrypha were included in the original 1611 version of the King James Bible, but were removed from the 1666 version. Even the Catholic Church regards these books as 'Deuterocanonical', or second-canon. Although regarded as inspired, they are not inspired in the same way as the principal books of the Old Testament.
The Greek canon added 8 books to the Old Testament canon. These books, known as the Deuterocanonical books, are not present in the Hebrew Bible but are included in the Greek Septuagint and Catholic Bibles.
These are books contained in the Catholic canon but not recognized as biblical by the protestants. A list of the books are given in the "related links"
Catholic, and Orthodox, canons follow the Septuagint (c.130 BC).The King James Version follows the Rabbinical Hebrew canon (c. 100 AD).Until about 1850, the King James version included the books missing from the later canon, under the collective title of 'apocrypha' or 'deuterocanonical' - the 'second canon'.The books present in the Septuagint (and therefore the Catholic bible) but considered deuterocanonical in the King James Version (or sometimes even absent) are:1 Maccabees2 MaccabeesBaruchTobitJudithWisdomben Sirachcertain parts of Esther and Daniel.
The Catholic Church calls these Deuterocanonical Books, because the form a 'second' canon. Another name for them is Apocryphal Books.

Yes. The first five books of the Bible are the same in Christian and Jewish canon.
A canon is a law or rule, usually made by a religious body. The Roman Catholic Church has a book of Canon laws that determine what is or is not canonically correct. For example, a priest is forbidden to marry by canon law. The word is also used for the canon of books contained in the Bible. A list of canonicalbooks would be those approved for inclusion in the Bible. The Roman Catholic edition of the Bible has more books than a Protestant version has.
