The Gospel of Peter is a second-century gospel that deals exclusively with death and resurrection of Jesus. It contains material from all three synoptic gospels, Mark, Matthew and Luke, as well as themes that evolved later.

The Gospel of Peter is a passion narrative, that deals exclusively with death and resurrection of Jesus. It is generally dated to the second century, making its authorship later than the synoptic gospels and probably later than John's Gospel, but a late first-century date is possible. A dispute about its authenticity caused Serapion of Antioch to discourage its being read in the churches of Syria around 200 CE. Eusebius (260-340 CE) listed the book as heretical.
The Gospel is a story about the Jewish authorities knowing the truth of Jesus' resurrection and lying to protect themselves from their own people, who are dangerously ready to believe such an event.
The authorities had led the people into crucifying Jesus. All saw the death miracles (the darkness at noon, the cadavers rising up out of their graves and walking into Jerusalem, and so on) and recognise what they have done. The people repent and strike their breasts. Seeing that reaction, the authorities obtain Roman soldiers and guard the tomb. Because of that, they are there to witness the resurrection-ascension of Jesus leading out from Hades those other holy Jews who died before him. Now knowing the full truth, and afraid lest those they led astray might stone them, the Jewish authorities obtain a cover-up from the Roman authorities.
The four gospels in the New Testament of the Bible were written by different authors. The Gospel of Matthew was written by Matthew, a disciple of Jesus. The Gospel of Mark was written by Mark, who was a companion of Peter. The Gospel of Luke was written by Luke, a companion of the apostle Paul. The Gospel of John was written by John, one of Jesus's disciples.
A:The 'lost gospels' are those non-canonical gospels such as the Gospel According to the Hebrews, the Gospel of Peter, the Gospel of Philip, Gospel of Thomas, Infancy Gospel of Thomas and many others. It should be born in mind that these attributions are no more reliable than are the attributions of the canonical gospels to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. For scholars, the most important of the non-canonical gospels are the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Peter. A search of the internet will access English translation of some of these texts, and the are also available (with difficulty) in printed form.
The two disciples Matthew and John wrote Gospels about Jesus' life. Many also believe that Peter was an important source for the Gospel of Mark.
A:The Gospel of Peter is an important non-canonical gospel believed to have been written in the second century. Just as we now know that Matthew and Luke were dependent on Markand that John was dependent on both Luke and Mark, scholars have established that Peter was dependent on all four canonical gospels. The most interesting scene in Peter that is absent from the New Testament gospels is one in which the risen Jesus is actually seen leaving the sepulchre. With parallels to Matthew, the priests worry about how to keep from the ordinary people of Jerusalem the fact that Jesus rose from the dead.
The authors of the New Testament vary, as it is a collection of writings by different individuals. Some of the key authors include Paul (Epistles), Matthew (Gospel of Matthew), Mark (Gospel of Mark), Luke (Gospel of Luke and Acts), John (Gospel of John, Revelation), and Peter (Epistles).
According to Acts 4:13, both Peter and his companion John were agrammatoi, a Greek word that literally means ‘unlettered’ or illiterate, meaning Peter could not have written any gospels or epistles. One of the reasons once put forward for Mark as the author of the gospel that now bears his name, was that Peter needed him to write down is recollections about Jesus. However, Bart D. Ehrman (Forged) says producing books in the name of Peter was a virtual cottage industry in the early church. Thus we have (among others) the non-canonical Gospel of Peter and the two canonical epistles attributed to him.
John, Peter, Matthew.
Since this is so central to the life and work of Christ all the Gospels have details about what is commonly referred to as the passion of Christ.Matthew chapters 26 and 27.Mark chapters 14 and 15.Luke chapters 22 and 23.John chapters 18 and 19.
Matthew 16:18 (Jesus' statement to St. Peter) and Matthew 18:17 (in a passage about conflict resolution).Matthew is the only gospel in which the word "church" appears.
Apostle Mark's mentor was Peter because Peter was one of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus and was a prominent figure in the early Christian community. Peter likely took Mark under his wing to guide him in spreading the teachings of Jesus and in his ministry work.
There are 27 books in the New Testament. They are: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 Thessalonians, 2 Thessalonians, 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon, Hebrews, James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, Jude, and Revelation.
The passage in Matthew's Gospel is considered to be an elaboration of the original in Mark's Gospel. The author of Matthew, on several occasions, sought to elevate Peter and portray him as greater than the other disciples; here it is taken for granted that it would be Peter who would be able to emulate Jesus. The passage is entirely missing from Luke's Gospel because it is part of the 'Missing Block', a series of probably thirteen pages missing from the copy of Mark's Gospel that the author of Luke relied on for his knowledge of the life and mission of Jesus.
