OK, I have a few questions about the way Judaism values the Apocrypha. I know that some books are valued by Jews and others are not. Would someone cite which books from the Apocrypha are relevant to Jews? I know that Macabees 1 & 2 are relevant, but are Macabees 3 & 4 considered relevant to Jews. Please also comment on what Jews consider relevant in the Anagignoskomena and also the pseudepigrapha. Is there a book that contains the complete set of Apocryphal works which Jewish people consider important to their faith? Thank you for your consideration.
 
None are included in the Hebrew Bible although they do contain some Jewish history. Does that make them "relevant?"

The Apocrypha is only included in the Catholic Bible.
