Additional books included in the Septuagint and Vulgate Apocrypha also appear: III Maccabees, IV Maccabees, Psalms of Solomon, Book of Odes, Psalm 151 and Paul To the Laodiceans (New Testament Vulgate).Įthiopian Apocrypha are featured: I Enoch, Jubilees, I-III Meqabyan, Ascension of Isaiah, IV Baruch, Apocalypse of Peter and I-II Adam and Eve. I did this only for reference purposes.Īlso included on this site is the complete English Bible Apocrypha*: I Esdras, II Esdras, Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, I Baruch, Letter of Jeremiah, Prayer of Manasseh, I Maccabees, II Maccabees, Greek Daniel and Greek Esther. An Akhmim fragment of the apocalypse is also featured which contains the interpolations added to the original apocalypse. This site features the Akhmim text of the gospel with the II Clement and Oxyrhynchus Papyri fragments and the apocalypse without the added interpolations. It is therefore true to say that part of this gospel is indeed “lost”. There are no traces of the beginning of this gospel. Every single fragment of THE GOSPEL OF PETER depicts events during and after the crucifixion.
Another fragment is found in II Clement 5:2-4. It is also very likely that the original form of THE APOCALYPSE OF PETER is from this gospel. 2949 were found later and it is the opinion of this writer that these are in fact fragments of the same gospel. Two other smaller fragments named P.Oxy 4009 and P.Oxy. One manuscript is a fragment found in the modern Egyptian city of Akhmim in 1886. Some of the documents may exist in several fragments as THE GOSPEL OF PETER.
Of course some exist in fragment form but the truth is THEY EXIST IN SOME FORM OR ANOTHER AND ARE NOT COMPLETELY LOST.
I hesitate to use the expression “lost books of the Bible” because none of the documents featured here are truly “lost”. This web site is dedicated in featuring rejected scripture.
