I believe it was Jerome who first wanted to give those books the heave ho. The Pope said “NO!”
Luther may have removed them from the German translations, but later Bible societies also removed them from the KJV. They are still available in KJV if people want one.

Everyone should read the Apocrypha at least once to see why they are not considered all that important.

I keep a modern Catholic bible close at hand to compare some “hard sayings” in the KJV.

I’m still perplexed and oddly amused that Catholics seem to think Martin Luther had a hand in the KJV Bible, even here on FR where it should have been beaten into their heads by now.
