Wise Lives

Viac o knihe

The Wisdom of Sirach, also known as Ecclesiasticus, is a significant yet often overlooked text in Christian scripture, despite its presence in all major manuscripts of the Old Testament. Originally written in Hebrew and translated into Greek in the second century BCE, it represents one of the final additions to the Old Testament canon. Its exclusion from the Protestant canon contributes to its status as a hidden treasure of biblical wisdom, offering insights that remain relevant to readers exploring the richness of scriptural literature.
