you added books to the Bible Nonsense. Show me a bible prior to the Reformation that does not have the disputed books. The Canons of Hippo and Carthage list them (late 4th and early 5c).

The Old Testament Apocrypha books were not in the Hebrew Old Testament which is what the church accepted as being Canonical.

Jerome rejected them as being part of the Inspired Canon.

This does not speak to the issue. I am not Jewish, I am Christian.
