Four Other Gospels

Exploring alternative narratives, this book examines four lesser-known gospels: the Gospel of Thomas, the Secret Gospel of Mark, the Gospel of Peter, and Egerton Papyrus 2. Contrary to the common perception of these texts as mere adaptations of the canonical gospels, Professor Crossan argues that they contain unique and potentially earlier traditions. Through careful analysis, the book reveals the significance of these fragments in understanding early Christian thought and the diversity of gospel accounts.
