Stone's latest book explores how the vivid and creative Armenian spiritual tradition shaped biblical stories to serve new needs. Stone edits and provides introductions, translations, and notes for Armenian manuscript texts relevant to the development and growth of biblical themes and subjects. Most of the texts translated are from previously unpublished manuscript witnesses. This fascinating corpus of texts about angels and biblical heroes includes stories of Joseph and Jonah, Nathan the prophet, and Asaph the psalmist. In addition, Stone has included documents illustrating particular points of biblical stories. This work reflects on not only how the Bible was interpreted in medieval times but also how biblical and Second Temple period apocryphal traditions from antiquity were reshaped and functioned in the communities that nurtured them. Readers and scholars will be fascinated by the dynamic and responsive forms that such traditions exhibit in Armenia culture."--Publisher's description. 546 $a In English; with original Armenian texts translated into English. 650 0 $a Apocryphal books. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85006006 650 0 $a Apocryphal books $v Translations into Armenian. 650 0 $a Angels. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85005001 650 7 $a Angels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00808746 650 7 $a Apocryphal books. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00811408 655 7 $a Translations. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423791 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423791 776 08 $i Online version: $a Stone, Michael E., 1938- author. $t Armenian Apocrypha relating to angels and biblical heroes. $d Atlanta : SBL Press, 2016 $z 9780884141884 $w (DLC) 2016034104 830 0 $a Early Judaism and its literature ; $v no. 45. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n91048110 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210023015.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B78C730EF50B11E7A6193F6E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
