In the Seminar "The Pseudepigrapha and Christian Origins of the Studiorum Novi Testamenti Societas," chaired from 2000 to 2006 by Professors James H. Charlesworth (Princeton) and Gerbern S. Oegema (McGill), the relation between the Pseudepigrapha and the New Testament has been discussed systematically and intensively in a way never seen before. The seminar and its participants have focused on the use, adaptation, reinterpretation and further development of non-canonical traditions in the canonical writings of Early Christianity.The Pseudepigrapha investigated included the Old Testament ones and those found in the Qumran as well as the Pseudepigrapha of the New Testament and the ones used in the Early Church. The seminar and its participants, who were all internally renowned experts from around the world, have focused on the use, adaptation, reinterpretation and further development of non-canonical traditions (except for Philo, Josephus, the Essene and early Rabbinic writings) in the canonical writings of Early Christianity. The seminar has met in total five times in various locations, while systematically being arranged around the following topics: The Pseudepigrapha and the Synoptic Gospels, the "Gospel of John", the "Epistles of Paul", the Other New Testament Writings, and the "Revelation of John".This series focuses on early Jewish and Christian texts and their formative contexts also includes sourcebooks that help clarify the ancient world. Five aspects distinguish this series. First, the series reflects the need to situate, and to seek to understand, these ancient texts within their originating social and historical contexts. Second, the series assumes that it is now often difficult to distinguish between Jewish and Christian documents, since all early 'Christians' were Jews. Jesus and his earliest followers were devout Jews who shared many ideas with the well-known Jewish groups, especially the Pharisees, the Essenes, and the various apocalyptic groups.Third, the series recognizes that there were (and still are) many ways of understanding authoritative literature or scripture. Therefore, we must not impose a static notion of 'canon' on the early period of our culture and in turn denigrate some texts with labels such as 'non-canonical', since such terms are anachronistic designations that were only later imposed on the early documents. Fourth, the series emphasizes the need to include all relevant sources and documents, including non-literary data, and that all important methodologies - from archaeology and sociology to rhetoric and theology - should be employed to clarify the origin and meaning of the documents. Fifth, scientific research is at the foundation of these publications which are directed to scholars and those interested in Jewish and Christian origins.

It will tell you if the perspective is from heaven or earth, if the event is mentioned chronologically, or if something yet in the future is being explained. No longer do you have to be intimidated by the Book of Revelation. Now you can enjoy the blessings promised to those who read and hear its message. This is a book for people of all ages and denominations who are interested in understanding the Book of Revelation. Dr. Terri Lewis began seriously studying God's Word after she attended many hours of home Bible studies in the '70's and '80's and still desired more. Delving deeper into the Word, alone and with friends and attending college Bible courses whenever they were available, she realized her passion for God's Word. Terri taught Bible in the Christian Schools where she worked and later received a Doctorate Degree in Christian Education.

After three years of work, how did I arrive at this finished book? I wanted to simply merge the story of Jesus into one easy-to-read book rather than the four Gospels and to include Old Testament Messianic prophecies which Jesus fulfilled showing that he was the Messiah.
