J. D. Crossan notes the following in his introduction in <i>The Complete Gospels</i>: "The papyrus is badly mutilated with not even a single complete line anywhere extant. Restorations are therefore highly conjectural. The text does not seem to be dependent on the New Testament gospels since none of their redactional elements are discernable in its few verses. Furthermore, where New Testament parallels exist, it is hard to discern a reason for the papyrus' changes, if indeed those were its sources. As an independent gospel, it belongs, insofar as its fragmentary state allows us to see, not with discourse gospels involving the risen Jesus (e.g., the Secret Book of James and the Gospel of Mary), but with sayings gospels involving the earthly Jesus (e.g., Q and the Gospel of Thomas). But the vision in 3:2 and the debates in 4:1-2 and 5:1-2 indicate a position closer to Q than to Thomas. No opponents, for example, ever challenge Jesus in the few narrative situations in Thomas as they do here and in Q." Crossan suggests that the document might have been written as early as the mid-first century. </p> <div style="float: left; margin-right: 20px;"><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>  <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-2665675471425577" data-ad-slot="3495055140"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script></div> <h2>Some Contemporary Texts</h2> <ul style="display: table;"> <li><a href="signs.html">Signs Gospel</a> (50-90 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="hebrews.html">Book of Hebrews</a> (50-95 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="didache.html">Didache</a> (50-120 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="thomas.html">Gospel of Thomas</a> (50-140 A.D.)</li> <li><b>Oxyrhynchus 1224 Gospel</b> (50-140 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="apocalypseadam.html">Apocalypse of Adam</a> (50-150 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="eugnostos.html">Eugnostos the Blessed</a> (50-150 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="sophia.html">Sophia of Jesus Christ</a> (50-200 A.D.)</li> <li><a href="mark.html">Gospel of Mark</a> (65-80 A.D.)</li> </ul> </div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> <hr width="50%"> <p style="text-align: center">Go to the <a href="index.html">Chronological List</a> of all Early Christian Writings</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></p> <p style="text-align: center; font-size:135%;">Please <a href="http://earlywritings.com/buy/">buy the CD</a> to support the site, view it without ads, and get bonus stuff!</p> <div id="infoleft"></div> <div id="inforight"></div> <div id="footer"> <div id="footleft"></div> <div id="footright"></div> </div> <div id="whitebottomlayer"> <p id="copyrightnotice"><a href="index.html">Early Christian Writings</a> is copyright © <script language="JavaScript">  </script> Peter Kirby <code><<a href="http://www.peterkirby.com/">E-Mail</a>&gt</code>.</p> <iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2Fearlychristianwritingscom%2F121187514627340&send=false&layout=box_count&width=55&show_faces=true&action=like&colorscheme=light&font&height=65" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:55px; height:65px; float: left; margin-left: 15px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe> <div style="float: left; margin-right: 10px;">  <div class="g-plusone"></div>  <script type="text/javascript"> (function() { var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true; po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s); })(); </script> <div><a href="https://twitter.com/mrpeterkirby" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false" data-size="large" data-dnt="true">Follow @mrpeterkirby</a> <script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+'://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs');</script></div> </div> <div id="buythecd"><a href="http://earlywritings.com/buy/"><img src="pic/textanim.gif" alt="Get the CD Now!" width="108" height="39"></a></div> <div style="width: 500px; font-size: 12px; margin-top: 8px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 50px;"><div style="position: absolute; width: 40px; height: 40px;"><b>MLA<br>Style</b></div><div style="position: relative; left: 40px;"><p>Kirby, Peter.
