    AS far as I know

    the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible has the largest canon (by far).

    Yes, there have been other books purporting to be Jewish and Christian religious documents from the prophets and/or apostles at least since the first century B.C.E.

    The Ethiopian Orthodox Christian Bible has 81 books and the Eastern Orthodox Christian Bible has 79.

    Non canonical books were not included when the Bible canon was established in the 300's by the Christian Church founded at Pentecost.
