Best Answer

The first Book of Maccabees was probably written about 100 B.C. II Maccabees was written earlier.

The Book of Daniel was written about 167 BCE, and the Book of Esther slightly earlier.

Answer:

According to Jewish tradition, Maccabees is not part of the Hebrew Bible; and the youngest books are Esther, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi, Ezra and Nehemiah, and Chronicles, all of which were written around 350 BCE. The book of Daniel was written shortly before that.
