I doubt it would have Maccabbees -- that was removed by Luther, so all these little groupings that claim to be not man made, follow the same thought.

I'm certain it doesn't just as I'm sure it uses the hebrew version of the Torah which was in disuse in Christ and the apostles time (which is why the quoted from the greek Torah which was in wide spread use at the time)

This thread still going on?

In most non English Lutheran Bibles, Maccabees is in it (1 and 2 Macc, but not 3 or 4). It is not viewed as holding the same authority as say Isaiah, but it is in there.

In Confirmation, we studied Macc. a bit.
