Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ante-Nicene Christian Library, Vol. 16: Translations of the Writings of the Fathers Down to A. D. 325 Our aim in these translations has been to give a rendering of the original as literal as possible; and to this we have adhered even in cases - and they are not a few - in which the Latin or the Greek is not in strict accordance with grammatical rule. It was thought advisable in all cases to give the reader the means of forming an accurate estimate of the style as well as the substance of these curious documents. Part I. - Apocryphal Gospels. The first part of the volume, extending to page 255, comprising the Apocryphal Gospels properly so called, consists of twenty-two separate documents, of which ten are written in Greek and twelve in Latin. These twenty-two may be classed under three heads: (a) those relating to the history of Joseph and of the Virgin Mary, previous to the birth of Christ; (b) those relating to the infancy of the Saviour; and (c) those relating to the history of Pilate. The origines of the traditions are the Protevangelium of James, the Gospel of Thomas, and the Acts of Pilate. All or most of the others can be referred to these three, as compilations, modifications, or amplifications. There is abundant evidence of the existence of many of these traditions in the second century, though it cannot be made out that any of the books were then in existence in their present form.
