Noah and his Book(s)
In
a collection of original essays, this book offers new insights on the
question of the lost "book of Noah," as well as studies of Noah's figure
in posthiblical literature. It focuses on ancient Jewish literature,
including the Sepruagint, the Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, the Dead Sea
Scrolls, Philo, Josephus and rabbinic literature, but Christian
sources, especially Christian iconography, Gnostic literature, and
Syriac material, as well as later sources such as the Qur'an and Jewish
medieval traditions, are also consulted.
