[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

It is an interesting book that allows a person to have ONE SIN after they have been baptized. It is also found in several of the oldest Greek bibles known.

It is best classified as a pious fiction. Not even Biblical.

You can find a copy in THE LOST BOOKS OF THE BIBLE along with other fabrications.

[Mrs. Don-o]

True; as far as I know, it was never considered canonical (except by Irenaeus??). Though it was sometimes "packaged" with the canonical books of the Bible as a kind of appendix of devotional literature, it was clearly not written by an author of the Apostolic decades, and therefore could not have been authoritatively inspired as a Biblical book.

It seems to be rather rigorist in morality, while at the same time kind of confused in Christology. At this point I will stop beause I don't know much about it.
