The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs; The following twelve books are biographies written between 107 and 137 B.C. They are a forceful exposition, showing how a Pharisee with a rare gift of writing secured publicity by using the names of the greatest men of ancient times. There were intellectual giants in those days and the Twelve Patriarchs were the Intellectual Giants! Each is here made to tell his life story. When he is on his deathbed he calls all his children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren about him, and proceeds without reservation to lay bare his experiences for the moral guidance of his hearers. If he fell into sin he tells all about it and then counsels them not to err as he did. If he was virtuous, he shows what rewards were his. When you look beyond the unvarnished almost brutally frank passages of the text, you will discern a remarkable attestation of the expectations of the Messiah which existed a hundred years before Christ.
