Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The Secret Gospels brings together, for the first time in a consecutive narrative, the major apocryphal sources of the Jesus tradition. Composed between the second and seventh centuries C.E., the secret or hidden gospels were influential in shaping Christian belief and doctrine for well over a thousand years. They include stories of the lost years of Jesus as a boy in Nazareth, the wanderings of the holy family, the death of Joseph, and the assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven. Newly translated and harmonized by R. Joseph Hoffmann, a specialist in early church history, these sources provide an unparalleled view of the devotional life and legend-making skills of the Christian church. They also offer important insights into the making of the New Testament canon and raise significant questions about the way in which belief in the divinity of Jesus of Nazareth developed. This comprehensive introduction to the apocryphal tradition is essential reading for anyone interested in the life and thought of the formative period of Christian belief. Enhanced by running notes and commentary, The Secret Gospels includes a unique supplement on the apocryphal Jesus tradition in Islam as well as long-unavailable sources from the Eastern, Coptic-Egyptian, and Arab-Christian traditions.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The works of many early critics of the Christian church were burned by ruling emperors or otherwise destroyed in the second and third centuries, but the writings of the Greek pagan philosopher, Celsus, have survived indirectly through his eloquent opponent Origen of Alexandria. In his apologetical treatise, Contra Celsum, Origen argues against the ideas set forth by Celsus and quotes from Celsus' The True Doctrine at length. Through this treatise, Celsus has come to represent the detached pagan voice of the ages. In this translation, Professor Hoffmann has, for the first time, painstakingly reconstructed the main order of the philosopher's argument. Celsus' discourse shows him to be an eclectic philosopher-a dabbler in various schools of thought, including Platonism and Stoicism, and a student of the history and religious customs of many nations. Hoffman supplements this definitive translation with an informative introduction, summarizing Celsus' premises and placing the identity of Celsus in its historical context.…
