The term "Deuterocanonical" refers to a set of books and passages that are included in the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox versions of the Bible but are not found in the Hebrew Bible or the Protestant canon. These texts, which include books like Tobit, Judith, and Wisdom, are considered canonical by some Christian traditions but are viewed as apocryphal by others. The word "Deuterocanonical" comes from the Greek term meaning "second canon." These writings were part of the Septuagint, an ancient Greek translation of the Old Testament, and their status has been a point of debate throughout Christian history.
