Ancient Jewish and Christian Scriptures examines the writings
included in and excluded from the Jewish and Christian canons of
Scripture and explores the social settings in which some of this
literature was viewed as authoritative and some was viewed either
as uninspired or as heretical. John J. Collins, Craig A. Evans, and
Lee Martin McDonald examine how those noncanonical writings
demonstrate the historical, literary, and religious aspects of the
culture that gave rise to the writings. They also show how
literature excluded from the Jewish and Christian canons of
Scripture remains valuable today for understanding the questions
and conflicts that early Jewish and Christian faith communities
faced. Through this discussion, contemporary readers acquire a
broader understanding of biblical Scripture and of Jewish and
Christian faith inspired by Scripture.
