Summary
The book of Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach, also called Ecclesiasticus, is the longest book of the deuterocanon. It was originally written in Hebrew, and fragments have been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls. It was later translated into Greek and added to the works of the Septuagint in the second century before Christ. This book helps to make the transition from the Old Testament to the New. It was well known and frequently alluded to by Jesus, the Apostles, and the Early Church. Many of the concepts are echoed in the Sermon on the Mount and other key teachings of Jesus Christ.
