The Genuine And Apocryphal Gospels Compared (1822)

The Genuine And Apocryphal Gospels Compared is a book written by Samuel Butler and published in 1822. The book compares the four canonical gospels of the New Testament with the apocryphal gospels, which were not included in the official canon of scripture. Butler examines the similarities and differences between the two sets of texts, and explores the historical and theological contexts in which they were written. He also provides commentary on the significance of the apocryphal gospels for the development of early Christianity. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of biblical studies, as well as anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the formation of the biblical canon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
