No, we do not know who wrote any of the New Testament gospels, because they were originally anonymous until attributed to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John later in the second century, however Philip and James were most unlikely to have been their authors.
There are non-canonical gospels attributed to Philip and James, but they were not the real authors.
Philip is listed as one of the twelve disciples but as far as we know , none of the disciples wrote anything. The four New Testament gospels were originally anonymous and were not written by any of the disciples, in spite of second-century attributions. There is a non-canonical Gospel of Philip but it was, like the canonical gospels, originally anonymous; in any case it is generally believed to have been written after 150 CE. This means that not only did Philip not write a book of the Bible, he also probably did not even write a book outside the Bible.
John the Baptist is not credited with writing any gospel.
The Monroe Doctrine
The stories in the Gospels are called parables because they are allegories of things we can not comprehend.
A:There is a non-canonical Gospel of Mary, attributed to Mary Magdalene. However, care should be taken in reading this attribution. From earliest times, it was the practice to attribute gospels to the disciples and acquaintances of Jesus, lending them authority. We actually know none of the gospel authors but it is unlikely that a woman wrote any gospel story.
No.
He has one brother (Philip Maslow) and one sister (Ali Thom)
No, Philip Roth did not have any children. He was married twice but did not have any offspring.
A:No, the apostle Matthew did not write any of the New Testament gospels. The four gospels were originally anonymous and were only attributed to the apostles whose names they now bear, later in the second century. Thus we only have the opinions of the Church Fathers as to who any of the authors were. Seeing a literary dependency among the synoptic gospels, they believed that Matthew, the disciple of Jesus, wrote the first gospel and that the gospels they attributed to Mark and Luke were based on copying and improving Matthew's Gospel. In fact, scholars now say that none of the gospels could have been written by an eyewitness to the events they portray.Scholars can demonstrate that Mark's Gospel was actually the earliest gospel and that Matthew's Gospel was largely based on it, with some 90 per cent of the verses in Mark, as well as containing further sayings material from the hypothetical 'Q' document. Clearly, a disciple of Jesus would not have needed to base almost his entire gospel on these prior sources. Matthew did not write the Gospel of Matthew.
No, James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps did not write any other stories. He was a British scholar known for his work on Shakespearean literature and folk tales, but he did not author any original stories himself.
Since the four New Testament gospels were all originally anonymous, we have nothing written by any of the twelve apostles, and therefore no direct evidence that any of them could read or write. Mark mentions Levi , son of Alphaeus as a tax collector, so presumably he could have been able to read and write. However, Levi did not become an apostle, so the author of Matthew's Gospel nominated Matthew as a tax collector in his stead. As the other gospels do not follow suit, and as there are other reasons to doubt that Matthew was a tax collector, it is unlikely that Matthew was literate.The apostle Paul, on the other hand, was quite literate and well-educated.
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.
