 New Testament apocrypha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The category of New Testament apocrypha reminds the modern reader of the wide range of responses that were engendered in the interpreting of the message of Jesus of Nazareth during the first several centuries of the Common Era, as mainstream Christianity emerged.
These New Testament Apocrypha are generally not accepted as canonical by mainstream Christian denominations, though the Ethiopian Orthodox Church recognizes the Shepherd of Hermas, 1 Clement, Acts of Paul, and several Old Testament books.
In the process of determining the Biblical canon, a large number of works were excluded from the New Testament.

 Category:New Testament Apocrypha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This category concerns itself with apocryphal books and texts, mostly written by Christians, that have not been accepted as canonical and consequently are not included in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.
Note that some of the books of the New Testament apocrypha were once considered canonical, even though they are not now--for example, the Shepherd of Hermas--and conversely, books like Revelation were once considered apocryphal.
There are 11 subcategories shown below (more may be shown on subsequent pages).

 Luther And "New Testament Apocrypha"
Similarly the Stichometry of Nicephorus (early 9th cen.) applies the term to rejected books, consisting of the Old Testament Apocrypha and certain of the Apostolic Fathers; but he also has a category of "disputed" books, among which are the Apocalypse of John and of Peter, Barnabas, and the Gospel of the Hebrews.
In the New Testament various changes were made under the influence of the complete Luther Bible of 1534, and the Old Testament closely follows Luther's text, with no certainty that the Hebrew was as yet consulted.
Were one to designate such a New Testament group of books from the standpoint of intrinsic merit, early usage, and inclusion with canonical or deuterocanonical writings, certain of the "Apostolic Fathers" would qualify for consideration.

The Abgar Legend presents one of the richest and most complicated textual traditions of the New Testament Apocrypha.
The patterns of segmentation in these two sources allow the classes of proclitics and enclitics to be clearly established with some innovative tendencies, provide plausible evidence for primary and secondary stresses in a range of compound words, and suggest that the traditional prosodic category of “enclinomena” was no longer clearly distinct.
The detailed typology of the Slavonic versions of the Abgar legend can be drawn only after consulting the detailed manuscript descriptions or, in the ideal case, the detailed textological study of the separate versions of the Abgar legend.
