Simple research that you won't give us. :-D
Here is something you can read and then you can go and see for yourself, we live in a time where we can look up everything, we have no excuses.
but to answer what you said.
The deuterocanonical books were not added by the Catholic Church; rather, they have been part of the Christian canon since the early Church. The Council of Rome in A.D. 382, under Pope Damasus I, affirmed the inclusion of these books. The Protestant Reformation led to their removal, not their addition by Catholics.
The Septuagint, a Greek translation of Hebrew Scriptures used by early Christians, included these books. Jesus and the Apostles often quoted from the Septuagint, indicating its acceptance
(e.g., Hebrews 11:35 references 2 Maccabees). The Church Fathers, like Saint Augustine, also recognized these books. The Catholic Church maintains the canon as it was historically received, aligning with the tradition of the early Church.
And
you can research the reference given under each of the quotes I posted.
Clement, St. Hilary and St. John Crysostom quoted Baruch which is just one of the books I randomly picked that isn't in the protestant Bible.
they quoted it just like they Quoted Matthew.
and they wrote those quotes between A.D 215-407 when they lived.
which means Christians at that time recognised it.
