Record summary
The Apocalypse of Baruch is a Jewish or Jewish-Christian response to the destruction of Jerusalem, known principally through Syriac transmission and related fragments or notices in other languages. Ethiopian catalogues and manuscript traditions preserve interest in Baruch material, although identification of particular Ethiopic witnesses and their relationship to better-known versions requires specialist checking. It matters as a comparison point for the movement of apocalyptic books across late antique Christian networks. Its attribution, language history, and canonical status are all disputed or qualified.
