Reviews

"[T]his comprehensive bibliographic work is an updated version of J. H. Charlesworth's pioneering The Pseudepigrapha and Modern Research (1976, 1981) and represents an intricate road map to publications in the field from 1850 through 2000...[T]his is a wonderful reservoir on the study of and research in the extra-canonical sacred Jewish texts primarily composed two millennia ago." -35th Annual American Reference Books Annual, 2004
"This compendious bibliography provides an indispensable tool for students of Second Temple Judaism...it is difficult to imagine that much of significance has escaped DiTommaso's eye. We are all in his debt for the information he provides and the time he has saved us." -Review of Biblical Literature * Review of Biblical Literature *
