Robert Kraft "Deuterocanonical Books of the Bible" by Anonymous is a collection of ancient texts that form part of the biblical canon for certain Christian traditions, written during the late second temple period. This compilation includes books such as the First and Second Books of Esdras, the Book of Tobit, and others that discuss themes of faith, morality, and the historical struggles of the Jewish people. The opening of the text begins with the First Book of Esdras, recounting the significant events during the reign of King Josias of Judah, particularly focusing on the celebration of Passover. It details the preparations made by the priests and Levites for this sacred observance, highlighting the importance of following the commandments given by Moses. Josias, described as a righteous king, initiates the offering of large numbers of sacrifices, seeking to restore proper worship in Jerusalem. The text emphasizes themes of fidelity to God and the collective memory of the Israelites, setting the stage for the spiritual and political narrative that continues throughout the deuterocanonical writings.
