The term Deuterocanon is used to refer to books that are not part of the Hebrew Bible, nor the New Testament, but make up part of the Old Testament in some (generally non-Protestant) Christian traditions.

For Catholics, the deuterocanonical works are Tobit, Judith, Additions to Esther, Wisdom, Ben Sira, Additions to Daniel, 1 Maccabees, and 2 Maccabees.

Eastern Christianity has various additional deuterocanonical works, varying from one tradition to another.
