The Jews mostly did not consider the Apocrypha to be Scripture. The church father's who were most familiar with Israel did not consider it to be Scripture. The Apocrypha wouldn't have gained so much traction if not for the Vulgate and the superstitions that formed around that translation. Anyway, I think it's irresponsible to act as if Luther just took it out and the rest of the Reformers just blindly followed suit, as if all Protestants followed Luther.
The 1611 KJV had the apocrypha... books like Maccabees for example are historical and not the Rhema word of God - therefore fallible. Some of the books (i.e. Tobit / Tobias) border on mysticism - reading it gave me the heebees
The Pharisees were a lay movement, not priests, who arise to prominence during the mid-Hasmonean period (roughly 150-100 BC). They are separatists, and want to keep Judaism separate from Greek influence (which the Hasmoneans had accepted to some degree). Some scholars believe they come from an earlier separatist movement called the Hasidim.
The Pharisees were a backlash to the Hasmonean Sadducees seizing BOTH the Priesthood (They were priests) AND the kingship which was supposed to belong to the Judeans of the House of David. The Pharisees invented the synagogue as an alternative to the Temple which the priests controlled and staffed it with another invention - rabbis. The rabbis were mostly of the tribe of Judah who were not supposed to be the religious leaders. It was the Pharisees yjat invented the Talmud or "Oral" Torah that radically expanded and changed the Torah of the Books of Moses. Jesus reviled this and called it the tradition of the elders and men.

When did the Pharisees come into play ?
