{en} History of New Testament Times: With an Introduction to the Apocrypha (1949) is a book by Robert Henry Pfeiffer.
Abstract
Written with the express purpose of updating Schurer’s Geschichte des Judischen Volkes, Pfeiffer divides his enormously popular critical examination of the New Testament times into two parts. Part I provides a critical summary of the history, religion, and literature of Judaism from 200 B.C. to 200 A.C., while part two functions as a detailed introduction to the Apocrypha. Lucidly written and painstakingly researched, Pfeiffer’s work advances the field of Second Temple Period studies through both his impressive command of secondary sources as well as his close, critical reading of the primary texts themselves. – Deborah Forger, University of Michigan
