One of the most intriguing non-canonical Gospels to be discovered in modern times is the Gospel of Peter. Unlike the New Testament Gospels, which were written anonymously (only later to be given the titles Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), this Gospel actually claims to be written by an apostle, Jesus' own right-hand man, Peter. The account we have is only fragmentary: an alternative version of Jesus' trial, death, and resurrection. And what an account it is, involving an actual record of Jesus emerging from his tomb at his resurrection, as tall as a mountain, followed from the tomb by a walking-talking cross. What is this fascinating account really all about, and why did someone write it, falsely claiming to be the disciple Peter? Megan asks Bart: -What makes this gospel different from the NT gospels? -Could you talk about the giant Jesus and the walking cross? -How does that get interpreted theologically? -Why would it be necessary to preach to those who are already dead? -Do we have any other fragments that hint at what else might have been in the gospel of Peter? -How long have we known about it? -What is docetism, and is the Gospel of Peter actually a docetic text? -How do we know that this is the same gospel of Peter that Serapion was dealing with? -Is it plausible that Peter was actually the author? Are there other books claiming to have been written by Peter? -Why would the writer claim Peter as the author?
