H. Charles, revising some translations and introducing many new works...A truly valuable collection of works otherwise difficult to locate."--The Bible Today"Presents clear, readable, sometimes superior, English introductions and translations (with sound bibliographies) of some of the more important apocryphal works and can be highly recommended for use by students and scholars at every level."--Religious Studies Review"A fine anthology of pseudepigrapha at a very accessible price."--Stephen Pattison, Kentucky Christian College "I suspect a good many students will be quite happy to invest in the paperback edition.
