These books.(Apocrypha).were written not in Hebrew but in Greek and during the 'period of silence', from the time of Malachi, after which oracles and direct revelations from God ceased till the Christian era. 

The contents of the apocryphal books themselves show that they were no part of Scripture. Similar too, were also the Gospels of Thomas and Juda; the names only appear as been taken from the Bible to build those books around them.

The Old Testament Apocrypha consists of fourteen books, the chief of which are the Books of the Maccabees.(q.v.), the Books of Esdras, the Book of Wisdom, the Book of Baruch, the Book of Esther.(not this 'Esther'), Ecclesiasticus.(not 'Ecclesiastes'), Tobit, Judith and Psalm.(note, not Psalms), etc. 

The New Testament Apocrypha consists of very extensive literature, which bears distinct evidences of its non apostolic origin and is utterly.unworthy of regard.

Comprised from.The Online Bible: This.(Apocrypha).has never been accepted as scriptures for the following reasons:
...the true Jews never considered them part of their sacred canon.
...Christ rejected them by citing the scriptures as the "Law, the Prophets and the Psalms":.Luke 24:44. The true Jews would know that to be what we now consider as being the 39 books of the Old Testament includes the Law, the Prophets and the Psalms.

Our Lord and his apostles confirmed by their authority the ordinary Jewish canon, which was the same in all respects as we now have it.

Such spurious books are never quoted in the.Bible. These apocryphal books are not once quoted by the New Testament writers.
...they are unreliable and contradict known historical facts and doctrines in the Bible..(various examples can be detailed); contact: Larry Pierce, 11 Holmwood Street, Winterbourne, Ontario N0B 2V0, OnlineBible.net)

The number of such books, the verse numbering and the actual verses themselves vary greatly depending on who prints the.Apocrypha. This is not definitely something you would want to depend on! 

The following is the introduction from the Oxford edition of the Apocrypha:

These Books form part of the sacred literature of the Alexandria Jews and with the exception of the Second Book of Esdras are found interspersed with the Hebrew Scriptures in the ancient copies of the Septuagint or Greek Version, of the Old Testament.

They are the product of the era subsequent to the Captivity; having their origin partly in Babylonia, partly in Palestine and Egypt and perhaps other countries. Most of them belong to the last three centuries B.C.E., when prophecy, oracles and direct revelation had ceased. Some of them form a historical link between the Old and New Testament, others have a linguistic value in connection with the Hellenistic phraseology of the latter. The narratives of the Apocrypha are partly historical records and partly allegorical. The religious poetry is to a large extent a paraphrase upon the Poetical and Prophetical Books of the Hebrew Canon. In the paraphrases upon the latter there is often a near approach to New Testament teaching, especially upon God's care for the heathen world.
