The suppressed Gospels and Epistles of the original New Testament of Jesus the Christ, Volume 5, St. Paul

A curated collection of translations and historical notes presenting noncanonical Christian writings and disputed early Christian documents attributed to apostles, disciples, and other contemporary figures. Included are letters long associated with eastern communities, an epistle purportedly from an apostle to a regional church, and a series of interlocutory letters claimed between an apostle and a classical philosopher. Each text is presented with accompanying commentary that summarizes manuscript evidence, provenance, and scholarly debate over authenticity. The volume brings together variant traditions and uncommon texts to illustrate different strands of early Christian correspondence and devotional literature while documenting the sources and arguments that surrounded their transmission.
