The Gospel of Peter
Pseudonymously attributed to the apostle Peter; actual author unknown, likely composed in the mid-to-late 2nd century AD, surviving only in a fragmentary Greek manuscript found at Akhmim, Egypt. Covers Christ's passion, death, and resurrection with vivid details not found in the canonical gospels, and language some scholars read as docetist-leaning.
