Apocalypsis (IX)

IX. APOCALYPSIS or Revelation of Moses. Georgius Syncellus1 speaking of this Apocalypse, says, that the following passage of S. Paul to the Galatians is taken from it, c. vi. 15. Neither Circumcision availeth any thing, nor Uncircumcision, but a new creature. Cedrenus says some Authors will have this Apocalypse to be the same thing as Genesis the less, another apocryphal Book, which the ancients were well acquainted with.
