This book is divided into four sections: 1) Apocalypses; 2) Testaments and Related Texts; 3) Legends and Expansions of Biblical Traditions; 4) Psalms, Wisdom Literature, and Prayers. Gurtner helpfully surveys many of the most important works of Jewish pseudepigrapha (such as 1 Enoch, 4 Ezra, Testament of Moses, Jubilees, Genesis Apocryphon, Letter of Aristeas, Joseph and Aseneth, etc.). While this volume is an excellent resource for understanding the background of early Judaism as well as the theological, hermeneutical, and exegetical milieu of the New Testament, Gurtner demonstrates how the pseudepigrapha can be studied, understood, valued on their own terms in their respective contexts.
