[ealgeone]

But there is no definition of who are the prophets. He clearly seems to have cited or in practice celebrated what was in 1 and 2 Maccabees, would you agree? Festival of Lights

When He noted the three fold division of the Hebrew canon the prophets would have been known.

And would not have included Maccabees.

[CTrent1564]

ealgeone:

I don’t think you can say that. The Jews in Diaspora viewed Maccabees as a prophet as Baruch. He says the prophets, not who Christ considered as Prophets and Christ celebrated the Festival of Lights recorded in 1 and 2 Maccabees.
