  I have now prepared my Study that deals with the literature of the Second Temple period.

  This period runs from the return of exiles from Babylon through to the Gospels, so it includes most of the "books" that later became part of Bibles.

  The writings of the period include: the Pentateuch, Second Isaiah, Ezra/Nehemiah/Chronicles, 1 Enoch, Jubilees, Maccabees, Paul, and the Gospels, and much more.

  I am fully aware there is a plethora of material that I could cite regarding the Second Temple period.

  Here is another resource I came across today which would sit well in my Study on the literature of the Second Temple period.

  My next Study is much simpler, dealing with the "significance" of the Second Temple period.

  Wow, thanks so much for posting those! I love critical study of the Bible. I’m a centrist, I think modern critical scholarship has a lot to teach us about the Christian faith, but I reject the conclusions of the more liberal schools of thought.
