A Very Small Book on the Christian Apocrypha

December 28, 2009 by Tony

It just came to my attention that Paul Foster (editor and contributor to the fine volume The Non-Canonical Gospels, mentioned HERE) has published a volume in the Very Short Introduction series on The Apocryphal Gospels. More information can be found on Amazon.

Expository Times Christian Apocrypha Volume

Earlier this month April DeConick mentioned on her blog, the Forbidden Gospels, a series of articles from the Expository Times on apocryphal gospels. You can see her original post HERE. I mention this post now because, thanks to April, I have been asked to contribute a piece on the Infancy Gospel of Thomas. These articles run about 6000 words, thus representing a decent introduction to the text and to current scholarship. If you do not have access to the journal, there will be a collection available next year similar to the volume by Paul Foster on the Apostolic Fathers (The Writings of the Apostolic Fathers).
