Gospel of the Ebionites. The Lost Jewish-Christian Gospel - Uncovering Radical Teachings, Apocryphal Traditions, and the Hidden History of the Early Church (Large Print Deluxe Edition For Easy Reading) (en Inglés) - Anonymous

In the Gospel of the Ebionites, you will discover a profound and provocative piece of early Christian history that challenges the conventional narrative of the developing church. Before Christianity spread across the Roman Empire as a predominantly Gentile religion, there existed vibrant, deeply traditional Jewish-Christian communities. The Ebionites, a name meaning "the poor ones," lived in communal poverty, strictly observed the Jewish laws, and revered a heavily modified, Greek-language version of the Gospel of Matthew.

Far more than a simple historical footnote, this collection of surviving fragments reveals a vastly different portrait of the messiah and his mission. It features unique accounts of John the Baptist's vegetarian diet, an alternative baptismal narrative where the Holy Spirit enters Jesus in the form of a dove to adopt him as the Son of God, and a fierce, uncompromising condemnation of the temple sacrifice system.

By painstakingly gathering the surviving quotations scattered across the writings of ancient theologians like Epiphanius of Salamis, this book reconstructs the spirit and message of a community that lived at the very edges of acceptable doctrine.
