Gospel of the Hebrews

The Gospel of the Hebrews is an apocryphal gospel, which was not included in the canon of the Bible and obviously in the 2nd and 3rd centuries was used by Jewish Christians in the Greek -speaking world.

The reconstruction of the text is, inter alia, only fragmentary possible about the quotations in the early Christian writers Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Papias and Hegesippus. A demarcation against the Ebioniterevangelium and Nazaräerevangelium, which were partly also referred to as the Gospel of the Hebrews is in this case carried out for example by frequent Hauer and Wilson.

The Gospel was used according to the church father Jerome of " Nazarenes ". It had the following characteristics: It was written in Aramaic, was the Gospel according to Matthew close and was entitled " Gospel according to the Hebrews ".

Its origin is from Klaus Berger dated around the year 140 AD.
