description: This work stands among the most important publications in biblical studies over the past twenty-five years. Richard Bauckham James Davila and Alexander Panayotovs new two-volume collection of Old Testament pseudepigrapha contains many previously unpublished and newly translated texts complementing James Charlesworths Old Testament Pseudepigrapha and other earlier collections.Including virtually all known surviving pseudepigrapha written before the rise of Islam this volume among other things presents the sacred legends and spiritual reflections of numerous long-dead authors whose works were lost neglected or suppressed for many centuries. Excellent English translations along with authoritative yet accessible introductions bring those ancient documents to life for readers today.
