The turbulent Second Temple period produced searching biblical texts whose protagonist were more everyday figures who expressed their moral uncertainties more vocally. In this volume, Larry Wills offers a deep interrogation of these stories, uncovering the psychological aspects of Jewish identity, moral life, and decisions that they explore.

Challenging the way Christian and non-Christian readers think about the Apocrypha, this is an ambitious introduction to the deuterocanonical texts of the Christian Old Testaments. Lawrence Wills introduces these texts in their original Jewish environment while addressing the very different roles they had in various Christian canons. Though often relegated to a lesser role, a sort of 'Bible-Lite,' these texts deserve renewed attention, and this book shows how they hold more interest for both ancient and contemporary communities than previously thought.
