Introduction written by David Daniell; "The books of the Apocrypha have a distinctive appeal. Not only, however, is it increasingly thought that they can have a good deal that is valuable to say about the background to the revelation which came with the New Testament: the very modernity of some of the issues--of religious guerrilla warfare linked to martyrdom, for example--must powerfully strike a new reader."--Page xvi, editorial note, David Daniell.
