4 Ezra: Facing Syriac and Latin – English Text
Libro 2 en Early Jewish Writings
This is a parallel facing edition of 4 Ezra. 4 Ezra is a fascinating apocalyptic work that reveals eschatological things to come and pursues the question of God’s justice in light of oppression. It deals with the question why did God allow his people to suffer the destruction of their land and temple? It presents a theodicy which addresses questions of evil, sin, and determinism. This book contains both parallel facing Syriac–English and Latin–English texts for 4 Ezra. For interested readers, the Christian additions 5 and 6 Ezra are also included with facing Latin–English texts, but after the main body.
This book is part of a unique series that contains early Jewish writings in ancient languages alongside English translations on facing pages. This series is designed as a useful cost-efficient tool for students, scholars, and lay persons interested in studying early Jewish writings. These works are important since they were considered authoritative by many early Jewish and Christian communities. Furthermore, they are saturated with examples of early Jewish biblical interpretation and correct false assumptions about early Judaism. Finally for Christians they are important since the New Testament quotes and alludes to these works.
Other features include:
- Introduction to this book and early Jewish literature
- Paradigm charts of noun and verbs
- Wide margins
