The suppressed Gospels and Epistles of the original New Testament of Jesus the Christ, Volume 4, Nicodemus
William Wake translated the Gospel of Nicodemus in 1704, revealing early Christian texts.
This volume presents William Wake's 1704 translation of the Gospel of Nicodemus, an early Christian text not included in the canonical New Testament. Wake sought to gather and present these 'suppressed' writings, believing they held significant spiritual and historical value. The text offers a different account of Jesus's final days, trial, and resurrection, featuring figures like Nicodemus, Pilate, and members of the Sanhedrin. Wake's introduction and notes frame the Gospel of Nicodemus as a vital piece of early Christian literature, distinct from later interpretations. It provides insight into the beliefs and narratives circulating among Christians in the first few centuries. Readers will find accounts of Christ's descent into hell and the reactions of various individuals to his life and miracles. The work encourages a closer look at the formation of the New Testament canon and the existence of alternative traditions.

Added this to my reference shelf. Plenty of passages worth underlining; my copy is already full of margin notes. Every rereading turns up something I missed. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Still worth having on the shelf.
