NO OF PAGES: 292 SUB CAT I: Extra Biblical Writings SUB CAT II: SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: These Books form part of the sacred literature of the Alexandrian Jews, and with the exception of the Second Book of Esdras are found interspersed with the Hebrew Scriptures in the ancient copies of the Septuagint. They are the product of the era subsequent to the Captivity; having their origin partly in Babylonia, partly in Palestine and Egypt and perhaps other countries. Most of them belong to the last three centuries B.C., when prophecy, oracles, and direct revelation had ceased.NOTES: On loan to the BH library by Barbara Kase. SUBTITLE: The Authorized Version
