THE RESEARCHERS LIBRARY OF ANCIENT TEXTS, VOLUME I
The Holy Bible is esteemed by man religious institutions and especially conservative Christians to be the inspired, inerrant Word of God.
This doctrinal position affirms that the Bible is unlike all other books or collections of works, in that it is free of error due to having been "given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works" (II Timothy 3:16-17).
While no other text can claim this same unique authority, apocryphal and pseudepigraphal literature such as what is contained in this volume, provides literature that often precedes or follows the chronology of biblical texts, which are frequently used or assigned as supplemental works, within academic settings, to help students and scholars discover or better understand cultural and historical context within the Word of God.
Whether or not the information contained in the apocryphal literature is entirely precise - as is the canon of Scripture - these ancient texts provide valuable insight into what many ancient Jews and early Christians believed.
Volume I includes the following texts:
- The Book of Enoch
- The Book of Jasher
- The Book of Jubilees
- Esdras I & II
- Maccabees I & II
- Tobias
- Judith
- Wisdom
- Sirach
- Baruch
- Susanna
- Prayer of Azariah
- Prayer of Manasseh
- Bel and the Dragon
- Laodiceans
The Researchers Library of Ancient Texts is intended to be a supplemental resource for assisting serious students and researchers in the study of the Bible and biblical times.
