The Lexham Bible Dictionary (Biblia.com)

Apocryphon of Joseph (4Q371–373). A title given to a set of nonbiblical Dead Sea Scrolls (ca. 250 bc–ad 50) fragments written in Hebrew, which may or may not be part of the same work. These texts are often classified as parabiblical or “rewritten Bible”; they may also be classified as previously unknown pseudepigrapha.

Wise renames this set of texts “Stories about the Tribes of Israel” because of its broad set of content (Wise, “Stories,” 331). The Hebrew text known as “Apocryphon of David” (2Q22) is also sometimes grouped with what are commonly called the “Apocryphon of Joseph” texts.
