A few Reasons the Apocrypha are not inspired.
1. Unlike other scriptures , none of the Apocrypha writers claim to be inspired.

2. Unlike the Old Testament , the Apocrypha are no where quoted in the New Testament.

3. The Apocrypha are tainted with errors in time and fact, exposing un-inspiration.

4. The Apocrypha contain fabulous statements which not only contradict the "canonical" scriptures but themselves.

5. The Apocrypha include doctrines at variance with the Bible.

6. The Apocryphal books were never acknowledged as sacred scriptures by Jews, the custodians of Hebrew scriptures.

7. Not one of the Apocryphal books was written in Hebrew.
