"This book examines the writings included in and excluded from the Jewish and Christian canons of Scripture and explores the social settings in which some of this literature was viewed as authoritative and some was viewed either as uninspired or as heretical. Through the writings of John J. Collins, Craig A. Evans, and Lee Martin McDonald, contemporary readers acquire a broader understanding of biblical Scripture and of Jewish and Christian faith inspired by Scripture"--
