The Acts of Pilate - The Gospel of Nicodemus

What if one of the earliest records of Jesus Christ's trial and crucifixion came not from the Gospels, but from Roman archives? The Acts of Pilate-also known as the Gospel of Nicodemus-is an apocryphal Christian text that offers a unique perspective on the events surrounding the Passion, written as though compiled from official Roman testimony. Believed to date from the 4th century but drawing on older oral traditions, this remarkable document expands the narrative of Christ's final days, his descent into Hades, and the testimony of those who witnessed his resurrection.

Long excluded from the canonical New Testament, The Acts of Pilate offers profound insight into early Christian beliefs, doctrine, and storytelling. Revered by early church fathers and referenced in theological disputes for centuries, this text invites readers to consider how faith, empire, and narrative intertwined in shaping the Christian tradition. This carefully prepared edition is ideal for students of early Christianity, seekers of apocryphal literature, and anyone fascinated by the historical roots of the Gospel story.
