The Christian Apocrypha burst into the public consciousness in
2003, following the publication of The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown.
Interest in the wide assortment of texts not included in the Bible
has remained strong ever since. Although much has been written and
said on the subject, misunderstandings still abound. Tony Burke's
Secret Scriptures Revealed dismantles the many myths and
misconceptions about the Christian Apocrypha and straightforwardly
answers common questions like these: Where did the apocryphal texts
come from and who wrote them?Why were they not included in the
Bible?Is reading these texts harmful to personal faith? The book
describes and explains numerous fascinating apocryphal stories,
including many that are not well known. Instead of dismissing or
smearing the Christian Apocrypha, Burke shows how these texts can
help us better understand early Christian communities and the
canonical Bible.
