And if memory serves, Jesus never quoted from Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon either.

So, I guess for you that must mean they’re not really scripture, right?

He DID quote from the sections they are from, unlike the Apocrypha, and they WERE accepted as part of the Jewish Canon, largely fixed before the birth of Christ. Oddly enough, the Jews didn’t have a Council to make some things scripture, and others not.
