Summary

How do apocryphal texts rewrite and reinterpret traditions from earlier, authoritative texts? The volume compares processes of reception and interpretation in early Jewish and early Christian literature. It includes detailed studies on the LXX, Qumran texts and Jewish Pseudepigrapha as well as early apocryphal Gospel traditions, Apocryphal Acts and Pseudo-Apostolic Letters.
