Considered by many to be 'the last important product of the
Apocalyptic movement', The Apocalypse of Abraham is an apocryphon,
a work that belongs to a body of prophetic Abrahamic literature
flourishing about the time of Christ. The text details the
Destruction of the Temple and thus was written after 70 AD. It is
considered part of the Apocalyptic literature but not regarded as
authoritative scripture.
George Herbert Box discusses here a pseudepigraphic work of the Old
Testament; the Apocalypse of Abraham. A prime example of the early
apocalyptic literature, no copies of this document survives in
Hebrew, Greek or other ancient languages. Although the original
manuscript is dated to the late 1st or 2nd century AD, the only
surviving manuscript today is in Slavonic script. Despite this, the
age and traditional sources of the writing have sparked some
interest from religious scholars. The author translates and gives
his own commentary to the Apocalypse of Abraham, with hundreds of
annotations of the text cross-referencing books of the Old and New
Testament. In providing such an exhaustive and heavily annotated
analysis, George Herbert Box seeks to prove the value and relevance
of this text in the wider Judeo-Christian tradition.
