Martin Luther conveniently got rid of the parts of the Bible that supported Purgatory.
Those books, like Maccabees, were surely in the Jewish Temples at the time of Jesus.

Which were not canonized by the Roman Catholic Church until Luther started the Reformation.

Surely? Not quite sure, are you? They may have been in the Temple but they were not in the Jewish canon.

Did the Lord quote from them? No He didn't.
