The majority of the books that make up the apocrypha were removed because their origin could not be verified. It was suspected that they were added after the fact, incorrectly, by unknown people. For instance, the one that was supposedly written by Solomon turned out to be likely written by someone else. Because they could not be verified and some it the apocrypha contradicts Biblical teaching that CAN be verified, it was removed.
