    Product Description

    ‘Secret Scriptures Revealed’ opens up the world of the Christian Apocrypha to those willing to explore these forgotten, ancient texts.

    Historically, Christian communities wrote stories and texts expressing their faith, their relationship with God and their position in the changing world. Only a handful managed to reach the exclusive club enjoying the privileged to be included in the canonized New Testament. This book is a doorway into the vast landscape of Christian writings guiding readers through interpretations, translations, misconnections about the Apocrypha and its unduring value for todays church.

    Throughout history, Christians have expressed their faith through story. They created texts featuring important early Christian figures - like Jesus, Peter, Paul, Mary Magdalene, and Judas - to express their relationships to God and to the world around them. Some of these texts are found in today's New Testament, but there is a wide assortment of other texts that are not included in the Bible. This book offers readers a guide to the Christian Apocrypha, beginning with a description of scholars' efforts to recover and reconstruct the texts, followed by examinations of a number of key texts. It responds to a number of misconceptions and common questions about the Apocrypha and finishes with a discussion of the enduring value of the Christian Apocrypha.
