4 Ezra

Who

A Jewish apocalypse written after the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70, preserved in the King James Apocrypha as 2 Esdras (where 4 Ezra 7:118 is 2 Esdras 7:48). It wrestles with the consequences of Adam's sin for all his descendants.

4 Ezra 7:118 = 2 Esdras 7:48 (KJV)

O thou Adam, what hast thou done? for though it was thou that sinned, thou art not fallen alone, but we all that come of thee.
