Sibylline Oracles

:''This article is about the Sibylline Oracles. For the books, see Sibylline Books.''
The Sibylline Oracles ((ラテン語:Oracula Sibyllina); sometimes called the "pseudo-Sibylline Oracles") are a collection of oracular utterances written in Greek hexameters ascribed to the Sibyls, prophetesses who uttered divine revelations in a frenzied state. Fourteen books and eight fragments of Sibylline Oracles survive. These are a collection of utterances that were composed or edited under various circumstances, probably between the 2nd and 6th centuries AD,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Sibylline Oracles Index )〕 and are not to be confused with the original ''Sibylline Books'' of ancient Roman religion which are now lost.
The ''Sibylline Oracles'' are a valuable source for information about Classical mythology and early first millennium Gnostic, Jewish and Christian beliefs. Some apocalyptic passages scattered throughout seem to adumbrate themes of John's Book of Revelation and other Apocalyptic literature. The oracles have undergone extensive editing, re-writing, and redaction as they came to be exploited in wider circles.
One passage has an acrostic, spelling out a Christian code-phrase with the first letters of successive lines.
==Introduction==
The ''Sibylline Oracles'' in their existing form are a chaotic medley. They consist of 12 books (or 14) of various authorship, date, and religious conception. The final arrangement, thought to be due to an unknown editor of the 6th century (Alexandre), does not determine identity of authorship, time, or religious belief; many of the books are merely arbitrary groupings of unrelated fragments.〔"Apocalyptic Literature", ''Encyclopedia Biblica''〕
These oracles were anonymous in origin and as such were apt to modification and enlargement at pleasure by Hellenistic Jews and by Christians for missionary purposes. Celsus called Christians ''Σιβυλλισται'' (sibyl-mongers or believers in sibyls) because of prophecies preached among them, especially those in the book of revelations. The preservation of the entire collection is due to Christian writers.〔
