Quotes:Wisdom of Jesus

Zirkoff, Boris

*Wisdom of laseous. The same as the apocryphal work known as The Wisdom of Jesus, the Son of Sirach, and also as Ecclesiasticus. The name is sometimes shortened to Ben Sira in Hebrew, or Bar Sira in Aramaic. The work is variously described as the Words, the Book, the Proverbs, or the Wisdom of the son of Sira (or Sirach). The most important ed. in English is that of G. H. Box and W. O. E. Oesterley, in R. H. Charles, Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha of the New Testament, 1913.
