How many Peter Pan books?

Answer 1

As far as we know, Peter did not write anything. Even the two epistles attributed to him are regarded by scholars as pseudepigraphical second-century works.

Acts of the Apostles was originally anonymous, as was Luke's Gospel, and both were attributed to Luke the apostle, later in the second century when the Church Fathers sought to establish who, in their opinions, wrote each of the gospels.

It may be that some see contributions from Peter to Acts of the Apostles because it lionises Peter so much, and draws favourable parallels between him and St Paul. However, it is considered more likely that the author of Acts, by doing so was really downplaying the importance of Paul to the early Christian movement, probably in response to what he regarded as an early schism in the faith.

Answer 2

Two epistles in the New Testament are traditionally attributed to Saint Peter: 1 Peter and 2 Peter.

However, scholars say that 1 Peter and 2 Peterwere actually written by two different authors during the first half of the second century, and that neither author could have been Peter.

1 Peter is known to have been written before 135 CE, when Polycarp referred to the epistle in his Letter to the Philippians. It contains nothing about the ethical teachings or the miracles Jesus is reported to have performed, nothing about his birth, baptism, trial, crucifixion, and death, in short nothing that Jesus' most famous disciple would have written about. 2 Peter is more readily associated with Jude, which is readily identified as being from the early second century, because 2 Peter incorporates almost all of Jude.

Answer 3

Two: the epistles of I Peter and II Peter.
