Lost gospels[edit] Gospel of Cerinthus – ca. 90–120 AD – according to Epiphanius[3] this is a Jewish gospel identical to the Gospel of the Ebionites and, apparently, a truncated version of Matthews Gospel according to the Hebrews. Gospel of Apelles – mid-to-late 2nd century; a further edited version of Marcions edited version of Luke. Gospel of Valentinus[4] Gospel of the Encratites[5] Gospel of Andrew – mentioned by only two 5th-century sources (Augustine and Pope Innocent I) who list it as apocryphal.[6] Gospel of Barnabas – not to be confused with the 16th century pro-Moslem work of the same name; this work is mentioned only once, in the 5th century Decree of Gelasius which lists it as apocryphal. Gospel of Bartholomew – mentioned by only two 5th-century sources which list it as apocryphal.[7] Gospel of Hesychius – mentioned only by Jerome and the Decree of Gelasius that list it as apocryphal.[8] Gospel of Lucius[8] – mentioned only by Jerome and the Decree of Gelasius that list it as apocryphal. Gospel of Merinthus[9] – mentioned only by Epiphanius; probably the Gospel of Cerinthus, and the confusion due to a scribal error. An unknown number of other Gnostic gospels not cited by name.[10] Gospel of the Adversary of the Law and the Prophets[11] Memoirs of the Apostles – Lost narrative of the life of Jesus, mentioned by Justin Martyr. The passages quoted by Justin may have originated from a gospel harmony of the Synoptic Gospels composed by Justin or his school.
