No more than the Council of Trent did, in declaring the Deuterocanonical books canonical. They were not regarded as inspired scripture before.

Serious question here: Is the second book of your Bible Titled "We'elleh shemot" sometimes shortened to "Shemot", or is it titled Exodus. You see if it titled Exodus then your Bible came originally from the Greek translation which was the Septuagint. This later had 7 books removed from it AFTER the time of Christs death and Resurrection.

In other words they were canonical long before the council of Trent. Trent simply reaffirmed their place in the canon, which had been unchallenged for 1500, until Luther.

Pesky things these facts.
