Menu loading, please wait... Four ancient texts have traditionally been employed in recounting the sayings and deeds of Jesus of Nazareth. The Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John have together enjoyed the priveleged status of sacred scripture since the late second century when they began to receive the consensus approval of the early catholic church. The four gospels now found in ...

The Egerton Gospel Alternate title: Papyrus Egerton 2, The Unknown Gospel c. 70-100 C.E. Named after the Englishman who funded their purchase, the codex fragments known as Papyrus Egerton 2 have been dated back to the first half of the second century, placing them among the earliest surviving Christian documents; they are quite probably the earliest known manuscripts from a non-canonical gospel.

The Gospel Of Peter Alternate title: The Lost Gospel According To Peter c. 70-150 C.E. The only surviving portion of the Gospel of Peter is within a codex discovered in the grave of a monk at Akhm m, Egypt in 1884, though it has been argued that Oxyrhynchus Papyrus 2949 may contain an earlier redaction. The codex contains a fragmentary passion and ressurection narrative with parallels to all ...

The Dialogue of the Savior c. 150 C.E. Our single surviving copy of the Dialogue of the Savior was discovered within the Coptic library at Nag Hammadi in 1945. Despite its badly damaged state, it represents an important stage of development in the Sayings Gospel tradition. The dialogue is an expansion of the pure sayings collections like the Gospel of Thomas or Q; the teachings of Jesus are ...

Epistula Apostolorum Alternate title: The Epistle Of The Apostles c. 150 C.E. Despite the title, the Epistle of the Apostles is more accurately described as a sayings gospel than a letter. In fact, it was likely written as an orthodox reaction against the Gnostic gospels which similarly describe the secret teachings of the risen Jesus. The preface, which attributes authorship to all of the ...

The Gospel Of The Ebionites Alternate title: The Hebrew Gospel c. 100-150 C.E. The only remaining fragments of the Gospel of the Ebionites are preserved in the form of citations by the church father Epiphanius in the latter part of the fourth century. Unfortunately, he is a rather hostile witness to the traditions contained therein, and his statements are at times confusing or contradictory. The ...

The Gospel Of The Hebrews c. 70-150 C.E. It is both odd and unfortunate that no copies of any of the so-called Judeo-Christian gospels have survived antiquity, though the texts, kept by early Christians who maintained deep-seated Jewish beliefs, were often quoted by Christian writers throughout the first five centuries. These short citations are our only windows through which we might study ...

The Gospel Of The Nazoreans Alternate title: The Jewish Gospel c. 100-150 C.E. It would appear that the Gospel of the Nazoreans was a rather loose translation of canonical Matthew into Aramaic, with a few embellishments, clarifications, and minor additions from parallel traditions. Among the more notable differences: In the Lord's prayer, the unclear Greek term epiousios, typically translated ...

The Infancy Gospel Of James Alternate title: The Protovangelion c. 150 C.E. The majority of the Protovangelion ( primary gospel ) is devoted not to the infancy of Christ, but rather the life of Mary. She is portrayed as not only a virgin but one who was a bastion of ritual purity her entire life. Much of the dogma responsible for the veneration of Mary can be traced to this document. In fact, ...

The Infancy Gospel Of Thomas c. 150 C.E. The Infancy Gospel of Thomas was probably the first of many attempts by the early Christians to document the first twelve years of Jesus's life, bridging the gap left in the second chapter of Luke.

The Oxyrhynchus 840 Gospel Alternate title: Fragment of an Uncanonical Gospel c. 100-150 C.E. The Oxyrhynchus 840 papyrus is a single leaf from a fourth-century miniature codex, likely to have been worn around the neck as an amulet. The fragment contains a total of 45 lines on front and back, encompassing two stories unparalleled in known gospel tradition. Of the first chapter, only the end is ...

The Apocryphon of James Alternate titles: Secret Book of James, Secret Letter of James, Epistula Iacobi Apocrypha c. 100-150 C.E.
