Considered by many to be 'the last important product of the Apocalyptic movement', The Apocalypse of Abraham is an apocryphon, a work that belongs to a body of prophetic Abrahamic literature flourishing about the time of Christ. The text details the Destruction of the Temple and thus was written after 70 AD. It is considered part of the Apocalyptic literature but not regarded as authoritative scripture.

The Apocalypse of Abraham, which has been preserved in old Slavonic literature, falls into two distinct parts (cf. the somewhat similar case of The Ascension of Isaiah). The first part, contained in chaps. i.-viii., consists of a Midrashic narrative based upon the legend of Abraham's conversion from idolatry, which has several peculiar features.1 The second part (chaps. ix.-xxxii.) is purely apocalyptic in character, and contains a revelation made to Abraham about the future of his race, after his (temporary) ascent into the heavenly regions, under the guidance of the archangel Jaoel, who here seems to play the part of Metatron-Michael. It is based upon the account of Abraham's trance-vision described in Genesis xv.-a favorite theme for apocalyptic speculation. In the Book, as it lies before us, the two parts are organically connected. Thus in chap. x. the archangel says: I am the one who was commissioned to set on fire thy father's house together with him, because he displayed reverence for dead (idols)-an allusion to the narrative of chap. viii.; and the general plan of the Whole work seems to be based upon the idea that Abraham's dissatisfaction with the idol-worship by which he was surrounded, which found vent in his strong protest to his father Terah (chaps. i.-viii.), appealed so much to the divine favor, that the archangel Jaoel was specially sent by God to instruct him and initiate him into the knowledge of heavenly mysteries. Whether the apocalyptic portion ever existed in a shorter and independent form will be discussed below.

Angelic visitations. Visions of heaven. Encounters with the forces of evil. And insight into the End of Days. The Apocalypse of Abraham is a classic piece of Apocalyptic literature in the same tradition as the Book of Enoch. Preserved in Slavonic, probably from Greek originals, both the Apocalypse of Abraham and the Testament of Abraham are presented together with insightful commentary from noted religious studies scholars G.H. Box and Dr. Moses Gaster. This authoritative text has value for students, theologians, and lay-readers alike. Students of both Christian and Jewish demonology will find the sections on the fallen angel Azazel and Samael, "poison of God," to be of particular interest.
