By Blomfield Jackson

Book Overview

Twenty-Five Agrapha: Or Extra-Canonical Sayings Of Our Lord is a book that contains a collection of 25 sayings of Jesus Christ that are not found in the canonical Gospels of the Bible. These sayings, known as agrapha, were recorded by early Christian writers and were considered to be authentic teachings of Jesus. The book is edited by F. J. Jackson and J. S. Blomfield, and includes an introduction that provides background information on the agrapha and their significance in early Christianity. Each saying is presented in its original language, along with an English translation and commentary that explains its meaning and context. The book is intended for scholars and students of early Christian literature, as well as anyone interested in exploring lesser-known aspects of Jesus' teachings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
