Widely respected Old Testament scholar Leonhard Rost provides thorough, up-to-date coverage of the tremendously varied body of literature which came to be rejected as part of Holy Scripture. Dr. Rost surveys the apocryphal books, the pseudepigraphal books (from Hellenistic Judaism in Egypt, from Syria, and from Palestinian Pharisaism), and the Qumran documents. Each writing is defined according to the following genre, date, authorship, historicity, contents, text, literary criticism, and religious significance. A bibliography is included. This is a concise and conveniently organized reference book for anyone interested in the history of religion.
