That would be incorrect. Some Jews used it and some did not, depending on where they lived. The area where Jesus grew up used scripture that did include Tobit.

There is only one Hebrew Canon. It does not include the so-called Apocrypha.

The fact that some Hellenized Jews were not Orthodox is meaningless.

Tell that to Jesus who was a Hellenized Jew.

The Deutercanonicals were removed around AD 70.

I need to correct myself here. It was around AD 90.
