BIBLE and INTERPRETATION
INTRODUCING THE PSEUDEPIGRAPHA OF SECOND TEMPLE JUDAISM Message, Context, and Significance Daniel M. Gurtner Foreword by Loren T. Stuckenbruck
This book introduces students to a much-neglected and misunderstood assortment of Jewish writings from around the time of the New Testament.
“Since the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls it has become clear that pseudepigrapha are critical for understanding ancient Judaism and Christianity. Gurtner provides a much-needed new introduction to these writings, deftly synthesizing cutting-edge specialist research into an engaging and accessible book brimming with insights. The result is a perfect resource for teaching as well as an ideal entry point for readers interested in learning more about these fascinating but neglected writings.” —ANNETTE YOSHIKO REED, New York University
