The Jews produced many writings during the Intertestamental Period. The Apocrypha are writings included, for the most part, in the Septuagint. They were translated into Latin and became a part of the Latin Vulgate, the authoritive Latin Bible. First Maccabees is our chief source for the history of the period from Antiochus Epiphanes to John Hyrcanus.A second group of writings is the Pseudepigrapha, a larger collection than the Apocrypha, but there is no final agreement as to which writings should be included in it. Fifty-two writings are included in two volumes: The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha,edited by James H. Charlesworth. They are attributed to noted people of ancient times as Adam, Abraham, Enoch, Ezra, and Baruch. For the most part they were written in the last centuries before the birth of Jesus, although some of them are from the first century A.D.The final group of writings are the Qumran scrolls, popularly known as the Dead Sea Scrolls. These writings include OT manuscripts, writings of the Qumran sect, and writings copied from other sources and used by the sect. These writings show us something of the life and beliefs of one group of Jews in the last two centuries before Jesus.
