A Scripture Index to Charlesworth's The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha cover

This is a complete index to the nearly 8000 references to the Protestant scriptures in the margins and footnotes of James Charlesworth's 2-volume work, "The Old Testament Pseudepigraphia". The information in the index will assist those studying the influence of the Hebrew bible on the pseudepigrapha and the influence of the pseudepigrapha on the New Testament.

"Unless you were using the original texts and a set of appropriate concordances, the Scripture Index to Charlesworth's The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha is the tool you were waiting for."- Kristin De Troyer, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 33 No. 1 January 2007 -- Religious Studies Review
"Since 1983, when volume one of the OTP appeared, scholars and students have asked me for guidance to citations of a biblical passage in the OTP. I did not possess a scriptural index to help them. Now, Professor Delamarter has offered us a monumental work, a valuable tool that helps us comprehend the meaning of a pseudepigraphon, and the ways a biblical book or passage has been interpreted in this vast corpus. We now have another key for perceiving how scripture was read, understood, and shaped by early Jews and Christians. A careful study of the citations themselves, and a precise retro version into Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek (which may not be difficult if the work is extant in those languages) will also guide us to a better understanding of the shape of a scriptural passage (conceivably not only its wording but even its orthography)."--James H. Charlesworth
