My book, The Super Gospel, A Harmony of Ancient Gospels, is available for purchase below. This is not a work of fiction, but a genuine Gospel harmony, comprised of over a hundred ancient Christian sources, laid out in chronological order from the history of Jesus’ parents all the way through his post-resurrection teachings and ascension. The mere fact that it can be done at all is momentous. The fact that it can be made to be so beautiful and fascinating and intricate is a testament to the pure genius of God. A link to the full version, compiled, integrated and read by myself, is available here for your listening pleasure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUiAViBLg7Q

Sirach, by Ben Sira, also known as Wisdom of Jesus son of Sirach, the Wisdom of Ben Sira, or Ecclesiasticus, is a work from the second century BC, originally written in Hebrew.
The book is included in the Septuagint and is accepted as part of the biblical canon by Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and most Oriental Orthodox but not by most Protestants, and is listed in among the Deuterocanonical books in Article VI of the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England. Although it was not accepted into the Tanakh, the Jewish biblical canon, Sirach is occasionally quoted in the Talmud and works of rabbinic literature. The Greek Church Fathers also called it "The All-Virtuous Wisdom," while the Latin Church Fathers, beginning with Cyprian, termed it Ecclesiasticus because it was frequently read in churches, leading to the title liber ecclesiasticus (Latin and Latinised Greek for "church book").
In Egypt, it was translated into Greek by the author's grandson, who added a prologue. The Prologue to Ben Sira is generally considered the earliest witness to a canon of the books of the prophets, and thus the date of the text as we have it is the subject of intense scrutiny.
