Those books might only have been known to few people, or they might have been left out because their content does not fit well into that of the other books of the Bible or the ancient Roman Empire culture. Some of the apocrypha were divine books of God almighty, and were therefore not included in today bible, but formerly found in the old Roman catholic bible called deuterocanonical books.

The Authorized King James Version of today called these books ‘Apocrypha’ which means the rejected or the hidden knowledge in Greek.

Books of the Apocrypha are:

Esdras
Book of Tobit (the Vulgate, and Luther call it "Tobias"
Book of Judith
Book of Wisdom
Ecclesiasticus
Baruch
Susanna
1st & 2nd Maccabee
The book of st. Mary
The book of Enoch etc.

Revelation 22vs19: And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, "bible" God will take away his share in the tree of life and the holy city, which are described in this book.

Deut 4vs2: You shall not add to the word "bible" which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

OK

If it reduces the confusion in the Bible, they should be removed

Any book not found in the Bible is not Bible. Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Forget all passed away books.

The Roman Emperor at the time had them removed so the message in the Bible would fit his political movement. Their was a council that voted also on what they think should be in the Bible. Some passages in the Bible still reference these omitted books by the way.

All this info isn't new, it's out there if you care to look for it.
