Apocalypse of Baruch
The
Apocalypse of Baruch is a
Jewish apocryphal or pseudepigraphical text written in the late 1st century AD, after the fall of
Jerusalem to the Romans in
70 AD, which seemed to the author to signify the imminent end of the world (the
apocalypse). It is not part of the
canon of either the Jewish or
Christian Bible. The Apocalypse exists in two quite different versions, one in
Syriac and one in
Greek. It is frequently republished and cited by modern apocalyptic Christian sects.
