Book Overview

""The Odes of Solomon"" is a collection of 42 poetic hymns that are believed to have been written by an unknown Jewish poet in the first century AD. These odes are considered to be some of the earliest Christian hymns and are highly regarded for their spiritual and poetic depth. In this book, Rutherford H. Platt provides a translation of the odes into English and provides an introduction and commentary on each ode. The odes cover a range of themes, including the love of God, the coming of the Messiah, and the resurrection of the dead.
