The Book of Baruch (ספר ברוך, Sepher Baruch), also known as 1 Baruch, is a non-canonical text attributed to Baruch ben Neriyah (ברוך בן נריה), a scribe and close associate of the prophet Jeremiah. The current version of the text we have today was likely put together by a Jewish author around the second century BCE or a little later.

This new translation of the Book of Baruch is one of the texts I decided to publish in Kindle format to solicit some preliminary feedback from my readers. You can download it from Amazon. But this translation is part of a larger collection of short works I translated. See below.
