Two points:
1) Neither Yeshua nor any of the Apostles cited any apocryphal/deuterocanonical book as Scripture (e.g., with the formula, "it is written," or "It says in the Scriptures . . .").

2) If the apocryphal books were true Scripture, Catholics wouldn't need them as sole witnesses to their theology (e.g., quoting 2 Macc. in support for praying for the dead).
