"Except for certain interesting historical information (especially in 1 Maccabees) and a few beautiful moral thoughts (e.g., Wisdom of Solomon), these books contain absurd legends and platitudes, and historical, geographical, and chronological errors, as well as manifestly heretical doctrines; they even recommend immoral acts (Judith 9:10, 13)."
