520    .This volume draws attention to ancient religious texts, 
       especially the so-called ''non-canonical'' texts, by 
       focusing on how they were used or functioned in Early 
       Judaism and Early Christianity. The contributors are 
       biblical scholars who have chosen one or more Jewish or 
       Christian apocryphal or pseudepigraphical texts, with the 
       aim of describing their ancient functions in their 
       emerging social settings. These show the fluidity of the 
       notion of scripture in the early centuries of the Church 
       and in Judaism of late antiquity, but they also show the 
       value of examining the ancient religious texts that were 
       not included in the Jewish or Christian biblical canons. 
       These chapters show that there is much that can be learned
       from examining and comparing these texts with canonical 
       literature and evaluating them in their social context. No
       ancient text was created in a vacuum, and the non-
       canonical writings aid in our interpretation not only of 
       many canonical writings, but also shed considerable light 
       on the context of both early Judaism and early 
       Christianity.
