The Lost Books of the Bible William Hone

Also known and originally published as "The Apocryphal New Testament". The twenty-six books in this volume do not appear in the Bible but offer more information beyond its scope. Some of them support or share New Testament ideas while others reveal new information about Jesus as a child, Mary's life before his birth, and much more. Each of these "lost books" includes an introduction, telling us what we know about them, including authenticity, place of origin, history of the manuscript and other interesting facts. This exclusive edition restores two original Prefaces and supplementary material that seems to have been censored in modern editions, starting in 1926.
