Description: Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition book which is a collection of Apocryphal books from early Christianity--the book is a softcover copy. This book is in SUPERB condition and has a very slight vertical crease on the left portion of the front surface, very slight tanning on the spine edge, a tiny ding on the lower left edge of the front surface, a tiny discolored spot on the lower back opening page edge, slight scuffing on the opening page edge of the early pages and just very light shelfwear and slight evidence of gentle browsing but NO other significant flaws! The book is titled The Lost Books of The Bible and The Forgotten Books of Eden and it was published by World Bible Publishers, Inc. in 1963 (this appears to be a 1970s printing).In Lost Books of the Bible and the Forgotten Books of Eden you can read for yourself many of the manuscripts which were excluded from canonized Scripture and discover new appreciation for those which were chosen.Though apocryphal in nature--many of them suppressed by the early Church Fathers--these forgotten books, gospels, testaments, and epistles are fascinating and beautifully written.Included in this volume are:Apocryphal gospel accounts, such as The Gospel of the Birth of Mary, Thomas's Gospel of the Infancy of Christ, and Peter's Gospel.Apocryphal epistles, such as Paul's letter to the Laodiceans, Clement's letter to the Corinthians, and the general epistles of Barnabas.Letters from Ignatius to groups of early Christians, including the Ephesians, the Romans, and the Trallians.The early 2nd century Christian work, The Shepherd of Hermas.Roman letters and reports from Herod and Pilate.Fables from Old Testament times, such as The Books of Adam and Eve, The Secrets of Enoch, and the Psalms of Solomon.Historical accounts, including the fourth book of the Maccabees.and more... Included before each book are some notes on its origins. Also included are frequent black-and-white images of etchings from early manuscripts.A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
