Ωmega (nprofile…v6d2) nine2fivestudio (nprofile…srtf) false. Various groups of Christians have always included and excluded certain books. The inter-testamental books were not written by prophets, and, therefore, were not considered divinely inspired. (To be clear, I use "prophet" broadly to mean anyone divinely inspired to write something God gives him and so include people like David and Solomon who wrote much of the OT poetry). The canon, according to tradition, was realized by a group of exiles including Ezra and Nehemiah who had returned to Jerusalem. Early Christians did not mention books like Tobit or the Maccabees in their lists of canonical books, and such books are not confirmed via quotations as canonical in the NT books the way the OT TaNaKh is.
