That depends. What do you mean by "other?" The four gospels were written by the Apostle Matthew, John Mark, who received much of his account from the Apostle Peter, Luke, who served as a doctor and followed Jesus, and John the Revelator, who replaced every mention of his name with "The disciple whom Jesus loved."

There are a few other gospels, for example in the Catholic Bible, there's a gospel that Thomas (the Doubter) wrote.

Which Gospels were not included in the Bible?

------------------------The decision not to include most of the gospels in the New Testament can best be understood by understanding the background of those gospels that were included. Ian Wilson (Jesus: The Evidence) says that it can come as quite a shock to discover that no-one can even be sure who wrote the gospels. He says that despite the versions printed in our Bibles long having borne the names Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, these names are mere attributions, and even as such are rather less reliable than attributions given to unsigned works of art. We can never know who wrote the gospels now known as the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, just as we can never know who wrote the many other gospels attributed to other disciples, to the Truth and so on. The mainstream Church simply made its choice in the fourth century, based on which of the gospels it was using, and which best reflected the doctrines of the Church.Some of the gospels not found in the Bible include:Gospel of PeterGospel of ThomasGospel of PhilipGospel of Judas IscariotGospels of Bartholomew(there were two Gospels of Bartholomew)Gospels of Barnabas(there were two Gospels of Barnabas, but the second and much later Gospel was really a Muslim gospel)Gospel of TruthGospel of the EgyptiansGospel of Mary Magdalene


Who wrote the infancy narratives in the gospels?

A:There are two infancy narratives in the New Testament, in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Since these gospels are traditionally attributed to the apostles Matthew and Luke, this would seem to tell us who wrote the infancy narratives. However, the gospels were originally anonymous and were only attributed by the Church Fathers to the apostles whose names they now bear later in the second century. Modern scholars say there is no good reason to accept those attributions and, in fact, neither gospels could have been written by an eyewitness to the life of Jesus or even someone who knew such an eyewitness. Thus, we do not know who wrote the gospels and we therefore do not know who really wrote the infancy narratives.

Who were the women who wrote Gospels?

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.
