The Value Of The Apocrypha is a book written by Bernard Joseph Snell and published in 1905. It is a comprehensive analysis of the Apocrypha, a collection of religious texts that are not considered part of the canonical Bible by most Protestant denominations. The book explores the historical and literary significance of the Apocrypha, examining its origins, content, and influence on religious and cultural traditions. Snell argues that the Apocrypha is a valuable resource for understanding the religious and social context of the ancient world, and that it provides important insights into the development of early Christianity.The Value Of The Apocrypha is divided into several sections, each focusing on a specific aspect of the Apocrypha. Snell begins by providing an overview of the Apocrypha and its historical background, before delving into the individual books and their themes. He also discusses the controversy surrounding the inclusion of the Apocrypha in the Bible, and the reasons why it was ultimately excluded from most Protestant translations.Throughout the book, Snell provides detailed analysis of the Apocrypha's literary style and religious themes, drawing on a wide range of sources to support his arguments. He also examines the Apocrypha's influence on later religious and literary traditions, including the works of Shakespeare and Milton.Overall, The Value Of The Apocrypha is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of an often-overlooked aspect of religious history. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of religious studies, as well as anyone interested in the development of Christianity and the broader cultural context of the ancient world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
