In this commentary on the Egerton Gospel, Lorne R. Zelyck presents a fresh paleographical analysis and thorough reconstruction of the fragmentary text, which results in new readings and interpretations. Details surrounding the acquisition of the manuscript are presented for the first time, and various scholarly viewpoints on controversial topics, such as the date of composition and relationship to the canonical gospels, are addressed. This early apocryphal gospel (150-250 CE) provides traditional interpretations of the canonical gospels that are similar to those of other early Christian authors, and affirms Jesus’ continuity with the miracle-working prophets Moses and Elisha, his obedience to the Law, divinity, and violent rejection by Jewish opponents.

"Zelyck’s work provides much fresh primary research on the acquisition of the fragments, which had not been previously available. Moreover, he provides the strongest case for a later dating of these fragments and better reasons for viewing the text as influenced by the Fourth Gospel. As such this is a highly important contribution to scholarship on the Egerton Gospel and it will be consulted by all scholars working on this text for many decades to come."- Paul Foster, University of Edinburgh, in: Journal of Ecclesiastical History, 71.3 (2020).
