R. H. Charles interprets the words of the twelve patriarchs, a
pseudepigraphical work which offers insight on the spiritual
perspectives and dialogue between members of the twelve tribes of
the Old Testament. The testaments are famed today for containing
apparent references to the arrival of Jesus Christ, as well as
parallels with the Gospels. Robert Grosseteste, a 13th century
theologian and philosopher who discovered the texts, accused Middle
Eastern scholars of concealing the writings given the apparently
prophetic references to Jesus' arrival on Earth. A fine companion
to Biblical readings, this book brings the scholarly skills of the
author together with the ancient passages of wisdom. We gain an
impression of life in the ancient world, and how humans employed
faith in the Lord in the battle against sins and the throes of
chaotic passions. Most importantly of all are the predictions in
the Testament of Levi; thought to predate Christ's birth, several
passages are comparable to the Book of Matthew.
