Missing Fragment of the Fourth Book of Ezra - Discovered, and Edited With an Introduction and Notes

Originally published in 1875, this is the first publication of a previously missing fragment of some seventy verses from the seventh chapter of the fourth book of Ezra in the Old Testament (sometimes known as 2 Esdras in the Apocrypha). The text is reproduced in the original language with copious notes by Bensly, a highly respected biblical scholar and a member of the committee that translated the English Revised Version of the Bible in the late nineteenth century, as well as with a brief history of the discovery of the lacuna and of the missing text. This book will be of value to any student of the Bible and to anyone interested in paleography or the history of biblical translations.
