Forbidden Gospels and Epistles, Volume 2 is a book written by Archbishop Wake that explores the lesser-known gospels and epistles that were not included in the New Testament. The book provides a detailed analysis of these texts, which were considered heretical by the early Christian church and were banned from circulation. The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the Gospel of Nicodemus, also known as the Acts of Pilate, which recounts the trial and crucifixion of Jesus Christ from the perspective of Nicodemus, a Pharisee who became a follower of Jesus. The second part of the book examines various other apocryphal texts, including the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, the Gospel of Thomas, and the Epistle of Barnabas.Archbishop Wake provides historical context and commentary on each of these texts, discussing their origins, their theological significance, and their place in the early Christian church. He also addresses the controversy surrounding these texts, explaining why they were excluded from the canon of the New Testament and why they were considered heretical by some early Christian leaders.Overall, Forbidden Gospels and Epistles, Volume 2 is a fascinating exploration of the early Christian church and the texts that were influential in shaping its beliefs and practices. It provides a unique perspective on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ and sheds light on the diversity of thought and belief that existed in the early Christian community.THE GOSPEL CALLED THE PROTEVANGELION.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
