Synopsis
Excerpt from The Lost Apocrypha of the Old Testament: Their Titles and Fragments; Collected, Translated and Discussed
The object of this series of translations is primarily to furnish students with short, cheap, and handy text-books, which, it is hoped, will facilitate the study of the particular texts in class under com petent teachers. But it is also hoped that the volumes will be acceptable to the general reader who may be interested in the subjects with which they deal. It has been thought advisable, as a general rule, to restrict the notes and comments to a small compass; more especially as, in most cases, excellent works of a more elaborate character are available. Indeed, it is much to be desired that these translations may have the effect of inducing readers to study the larger works.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating exploration of a largely forgotten genre of biblical literature: the Apocrypha. The author delves into the intriguing world of ancient Jewish and early Christian texts that were once considered sacred but later excluded from the official canon of the Bible. The book examines the origins, content, and significance of these often-overlooked writings. It offers an engaging analysis of lost books attributed to figures like Adam, Noah, and Abraham, shedding light on their themes of repentance, creation, and prophecy. Through a detailed examination of surviving fragments, the author unveils the diverse nature of these apocryphal texts. Some recount legendary stories and embellished biblical narratives, while others delve into apocalyptic visions and eschatological predictions. By revealing the rich tapestry of these "lost" scriptures, the book provides valuable insight into the development of early Christian thought and the multifaceted ways in which ancient communities sought to understand their faith and the divine. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331240471_0
