Old Testament Apocrypha (Deuterocanonical Books of the Bible) by various writers (2nd century BCE)
The Apocrypha is a collection of religious books written in the Jewish context in the period between the Old and New Testaments. They have a great deal in common with the books of the Old Testament, using many of the same styles and encompassing similar genres, like history and wisdom literature. Although not considered part of the standard canon in Judaism or Christianity, some Christian groups (like Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox) count them as scriptures under a deuterocanonical status.
The Bible, New Testament by various writers (1st century CE)
The New Testament is the second major part of the Bible in the Christian tradition, following the Old Testament. The New Testament is deeply grounded in the history and theology of the Old Testament texts, portraying the coming of Jesus of Nazareth as the fulfillment of the narrative arc of God’s relationship with Israel and as the solution to the problem of sin. The New Testament, composed largely or entirely within the first century CE, includes historical books which recount the life of Jesus and the growth of the early church, as well as many theological epistles (letters) by early Christian leaders.
