Publisher's Synopsis
The Gospel of Barnabas is a religious text that was published in 1907, allegedly written by the apostle Barnabas. The book is a purported account of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, as told by Barnabas, who is said to have been one of Jesus' closest disciples. The text is written in the form of a gospel, and includes many of the same stories and teachings that are found in the canonical gospels of the New Testament, such as the Sermon on the Mount and the crucifixion of Jesus.However, there are also many significant differences between The Gospel of Barnabas and the other gospels. For example, the book portrays Jesus as a prophet rather than as the Son of God, and it includes a detailed account of the life of Muhammad, whom it describes as the true prophet of God. The book also includes a number of teachings and practices that are not found in the other gospels, such as the requirement for circumcision and the prohibition of alcohol.The Gospel of Barnabas has been the subject of much controversy and debate within the Christian and Islamic communities. Some scholars believe that the book was written in the Middle Ages, rather than being an authentic account of the life of Jesus, while others argue that it is a genuine document that has been suppressed by the Christian church. Regardless of its origins, The Gospel of Barnabas remains an important text for those interested in the history of Christianity and Islam, and continues to be studied and debated by scholars and religious leaders around the world.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1907 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
