2020 Center for Biblical Studies Book Award (Reference Works) This
book introduces readers to a much-neglected and misunderstood
assortment of Jewish writings from around the time of the New
Testament. Dispelling mistaken notions of "falsely attributed
writings" that are commonly inferred from the designation
"pseudepigrapha," Daniel Gurtner demonstrates the rich indebtedness
these works exhibit to the traditions and scriptures of Israel's
past. In surveying many of the most important works, Introducing
the Pseudepigrapha of Second Temple Judaism shows how the
pseudepigrapha are best appreciated in their own varied contexts
rather than as mere "background" to early Christianity or emerging
rabbinic Judaism. Foreword by Loren T. Stuckenbruck.
