Excerpt from Old Testament Legends: Being Stories Out of Some of the Less-Known Apocryphal Books of the Old Testament If you read the title-page of this book - a thing which young persons very seldom do - you will see that it (the book) contains stories taken "out of some of the less-known apocryphal books of the Old Testament." You will very possibly not understand what that means; but if you will read this preface - another thing which young persons do even seldomer than they read a title-page - you will find the best explanation that I can give. I have to begin by talking about the word apocryphal. The newspapers are fond of saying that a statement made by the Prime Minister (or the leader of the Opposition, according to which side in politics the newspaper takes) is apocryphal. By this; the newspaper means to say that the statement I was untrue. Or, you will read that someone obtained money or goods by saying that he possessed) large estates abroad; and that the estates turned out to be apocryphal. By this is meant that they did not exist.
