Publisher's Synopsis
The Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha of the Old Testament in English V1: Apocrypha (1913) is a book that contains a collection of religious texts that were not included in the canonical Old Testament. The book is edited by R. H. Charles and is the first volume in a series that includes both the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha. The Apocrypha section of the book includes 14 books, such as Tobit, Judith, and the Wisdom of Solomon, which were originally written in Greek and were included in the Septuagint, a Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible. The Pseudepigrapha section of the book includes texts that were attributed to biblical figures but were not actually written by them, such as the Book of Enoch and the Testament of the Twelve Patriarchs. The book provides an English translation of these texts, along with introductions and notes that provide context and historical background. Overall, The Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha of the Old Testament in English V1: Apocrypha (1913) is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of biblical texts and the religious beliefs of ancient cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
