The Apocrypha contains a wide range of literature, including historical accounts, wisdom literature, and apocalyptic literature. Goodspeed's translation of the Apocrypha is designed to be accessible to modern readers. He worked to make the language clear and straightforward, while still maintaining the literary style of the original texts. The book includes introductions to each text, providing historical and literary context, as well as notes and annotations to help readers understand the text.

It provides a valuable window into the religious and cultural world of the ancient Near East, and offers insights into the development of Jewish thought and belief.
