The Apocryphal Old Testament

by H.F.D. Sparks
The Apocryphal Old Testament
The Apocryphal Old Testament

Non-canonical texts exploring biblical scholarship.

Diving into "The Apocryphal Old Testament" is like uncovering a hidden chapter of religious history. These texts, while not part of the standard biblical canon, offer a deeper insight into the spiritual and cultural context of ancient times. It's a must-read if you're intrigued by the complexities of religious scholarship or simply yearn to explore the untold stories that shaped early Judeo-Christian thoughts.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
