Synopsis
A Key To The Old Testament And Apocrypha: Or An Account Of Their Several Books, Their Contents And Authors, And Of The Times In Which They Were Respectively Written by Robert Gray provides a compact, practical guide to the Old Testament (and Apocrypha) with an added New Testament key. It outlines the canon and text history, including the Jewish division of Law, Prophets, and Writings, the fixing of canonicity by post-exilic authorities, textual transmission concerns, and the role of Masoretic notes and marginal readings. It traces the English Bible's lineage—from Saxon times to the King James Version—through translations shaped by political and religious pressures. It offers concise overviews of the Pentateuch (Moses as author, moral/ceremonial/judicial law), Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers, highlighting how these books prepare for the New Covenant. The work also presents discussions on form, authorship debates, and theological themes across Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, the Prophets, and Isaiah, plus a broad treatment of the New Testament canonicity, apocrypha, sects, chronology, and the Gospels, Acts, Epistles, and Revelation. Overall, it aims to guide readers and students in understanding authorship, dating, form, themes, and the relationship between Old Testament prophecy and its New Testament fulfillment, while acknowledging diverse scholarly opinions. It includes careful distinctions between canonical scripture and valued but non-canonical writings, and points readers toward further commentaries for deeper prophecy study.
