New Testament Apocrypha: More Noncanonical Scriptures (3 vols.)

This anthology of ancient nonbiblical Christian literature presents informed introductions to and readable translations of a wide range of little- known apocryphal texts, most of which have never before been translated into any modern language. An introduction to each volume addresses the most significant features of the writings included and contextualizes them within the contemporary study of the Christian Apocrypha. The body of each book comprises texts that have been carefully introduced, copiously annotated, and translated into English by eminent scholars.
