About This Tag
From the second through fourth centuries CE, patristic writers across the Greek- and Latin-speaking churches regularly quoted Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach, Tobit, Baruch, and 1 and 2 Maccabees alongside the Hebrew Scriptures and New Testament writings, drawing on them for moral and ethical teaching in ways that mirrored their use of other scripture, and this broad acceptance shaped the eventual inclusion of these books in many Christian biblical canons. Rabbinic tradition likewise preserved Sirach in particular as an authority, introducing its verses with the same citation formulas used for the Tanakh and attributing sayings to Ben Sira as if he were a sage among the rabbis, even ranking a verse from Sirach alongside the Torah, Prophets, and Writings despite the book's eventual exclusion from the rabbinic canon.
