Suppressed by the early church fathers who compiled the Bible, these apocryphal books have been shrouded in silence for centuries. Here are the Apostles' Creed, the girlhood and betrothal of Mary, the childhood of Jesus-told in all their warmth, intimacy and humanity. Translated from the Original Tongues, with 32 illustrations from Ancient Paintings and Missals.… (altro)
A good (but older and incomplete) collection of works that did not make it into the Bible. There are many newer works with more up-to-date introductions and more contemporary translations (and additional, more recently discovered books) that I would recommend over this. (Hone died in 1842). Depending on your interests [The Other Bible], [The Gnostic Bible], [The Nag Hammadi Library in English], [The Nag Hammadi Scriptures], or [The Complete Gospels] will serve you better.
(If you wish to read every scrap of literature that did not appear in the Bible then read [Old Testament Apocrypha], [Old Testament Pseudepigrapha], [New Testament Apocrypha] (2 vols.) by [[Schneemelcher]] supplemented by [The Tchacos Codex].)
Good for its time but there are more readable (and more complete) books than this one.
As a collection of ancient manuscripts, this is an excellent book. Reading many of them, you can certainly understand why they were left out of the orthodox Bible. A worthwhile read. ( )

"Christ was the joyous boy of the fields. We are not permitted to think that the shadows of Calvary darkened His pathway as a youth, and the Apocryphal Books of the New Testament show a great deal of the early life of Christ not to be found in the four Evangelists." --Dr. Talmage

FOREWORD TO THE 1979 EDITION (by Solomom J. Schepps) Until 1926, when the texts in this book were first published, people interested in the historical Jesus and his times had little more to consult than the New Testament, the Koran, and the writings of Josephus, one of the few historians who actually mentions Jesus.
PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION Although the Apocryphal New Testament was put out without pretension or ostentatious announcement, or even solicitude for its fate, yet a large Edition has been sold in a few months.
