Book: The Testament Of Solomon by Solomonic Grimoires
The Testament of Solomon is a Grimoire classed as a Pseudepigrapha, or text or a Collection of texts, written between 200 BCE and 200 CE that has falsely been attributed to King Solomon.It is the earliest known Compendium of demons and describes Solomon as a Magician. Translated by F.C Conybeare in 1898 who has stated that it may have been re-worked by a Christian, as many Christian passages may be found in certain sections.
The Manuscript contains 130 sections, according to Conybeare's translation. Within the text Solomon states that he wrote his testament before his death so that the children of Israel would know the powers and shapes of the demons, and the names of the angels who have power over them.
The story described by Solomon in the Testament provides a framework into which magical formulae and names could be inserted without destroying the content, and therefore due to this, the text has grown over the centuries, so that it is now very difficult to identify original text from later additions.
