When you gave the definitions for ancient texts you said it included the first millennium. When I applied this to the Koran, you said no, it had to be the first century.  Which do you really mean so I can make accurate suggestions. from the placement of the NT apocrypha, the first mellennium seems the more likely.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Sorry about that.

    I meant "century" not "millennium". (What's a 900 year difference amongst friends?)

    I've been struggling though with a way to categorize first millennial texts. The categories we use for "era" in commentaries is useful but it doesn't always feel appropriate texts outside the Christian tradition.
