The Genuine and Apocryphal Gospels Compared is a book written by Samuel Butler in 1822. The book is a comparative analysis of the four canonical gospels of the New Testament (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) and the apocryphal gospels (early Christian texts that were not included in the New Testament canon). Butler examines the similarities and differences between the two sets of gospels, highlighting the theological and historical implications of these variations. He also explores the origins and development of the apocryphal gospels and their relationship to the canonical gospels.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the apocryphal gospels and their historical context. The second part compares the content of the canonical and apocryphal gospels, focusing on the life and teachings of Jesus. The third part examines the theological implications of the differences between the two sets of gospels.Overall, The Genuine and Apocryphal Gospels Compared is a scholarly work that provides a comprehensive analysis of the early Christian texts and their significance for understanding the life and teachings of Jesus.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
