		Egerton seems to represent a period in the development of Johannine tradition prior to its conclusive split with the Judaistic community.

		Gospel songs were therefore the logical choice for anthems for the Civil Rights Movement, which drew its leaders, much of its organization, and its vision from fl churches.
		Gospel artists, who had been influenced by pop music trends for years, had a major influence on early rhythm and blues artists, particularly the "bird groups" such as the Orioles, the Ravens and the Flamingos, who applied gospel quartets' a cappella techniques to pop songs in the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s.
		Southern gospel also drew much of its creative energy from the Holiness churches that arose throughout the south in the first decades of the twentieth century and that created new music, in addition to the traditional hymns of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, to accompany their new forms of worship.

	The Scholarly Corruption of Egerton
		Back to John 3:2, it is unlike Egerton 3:2 in that John 3:2 does not follow with an explicit question; instead, Jesus treats it as an opportunity to expand on what "coming from God" means.
		- seen in the Egerton parallel John 5:39, common throughout John and 1 John, used heavily by the true-Pauline and Pastoral literature, and even cited by original Mark (albeit introduced as a quote by the rich man) in Mark 10:17, 10:30 and synoptic parallels - is merely "life" in Egerton.
		As for Egerton 3:2, it might be as basic as "for this you have come", referring to the imminent restoration of God's reign.

	Dating Early Christian Gospels
		Dates of gospel origins cannot be assessed with such a high degree of precision because the gospels stem from a sparsely documented period in distant history.
		When some gospels are located in the first century and others in the second, the implication is unavoidable: the earlier gospels are more original than their later, derivative counterparts.
		By creating a gospel, every ancient author was trying to present his or her beliefs about Jesus in a way that would be helpful to his followers after the end of his physical life.

		The most likely explanation for the Egerton Gospel's similarities and differences from the canonical gospels is that Egerton's author made independent use of traditional sayings and stories of Jesus that also were used by the other gospel writers.
		On dating Egerton, Cameron states: "Since Papyrus Egerton 2 displays no dependence upon the gospels of the New Testament, its earliest possible date of composition would be sometime in the middle of the first century, when the sayings and stories which underlie the New Testament first began to be produced in written form.

	Gospel of Judas
		In sum, in addition to the four canonical gospels, we have four complete noncanonicals, seven fragmentary, four known from quotations and two hypothetically recovered for a total of 21 gospels from the first two centuries, and we know that others existed in the early period.
		This gospel has a completely different understanding of God, the world, Christ, salvation, human existence—not to mention of Judas himself—than came to be embodied in the Christian creeds and canon.
		It remains to be firmly established that the recently uncovered "Gospel of Judas" corresponds to the Gospel of Judas mentioned by Irenaeus of Lyons.

	Differences among gospels: comparing John with the remaining three gospels
		The word "Gospel" is a translation into English of the Greek word "euangelion" which means "good news." Many dozens of gospels were written in the first and second century CE; each was believed to be accurate by various groups within the early Christian movement and was extensively used by them.
		It consists of about 50 lines from the Egerton gospel -- one of the 40 or so gospels that never made it into the official canon, and whose author is unknown.
		John reported mainly on the former; the synoptic gospels on the latter.

	Excerpt from the Introduction to The Complete Gospels
		The New Testament gospels are complex works of literature that draw on a variety of oral and written sources of tradition, some from Jesus and some about him, such as miracle stories, collections of his parables and sayings, traditions about his birth and childhood, and stories about his death and resurrection.
		Besides the four New Testament gospels, there is what may be called a miracle gospel (the Signs Gospel), infancy gospels (the Infancy Gospels of Thomas and James), and a passion gospel (Gospel of Peter).
		The distinction between the canonical and the non-canonical gospels did not exist in the period of Christian origins, and therefore is not helpful for understanding the earliest centuries of Christianity in their rich diversity.

	Radical Faith - exploring faith in a changed world
		Strictly speaking, the Egerton Gospel isn't a gospel in the sense that the four main gospels are.
		The language of the Egerton Gospel doesn't seem to be of the same type as the language of the canonical gospels, although there are similarities in the material.
		But the Egerton version seems to be considerably less developed than John's and is therefore possibly the earlier of the two.

		The most likely explanation for the Egerton Gospel's similarities and differences from the canonical gospels is that Egerton's author made independent use of traditional sayings and stories of Jesus that also were used by the other gospel writers.
		All other major gnostic texts—like the Gospel of Truth, the Gospel of Philip, the Gospel of the Hebrews, the Gospel of Mary, and so on—are clearly written in the second and third centuries.
		Unlike the canonical gospels, Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection are not narrated and neither do any of the hundred and fourteen sayings in the Gospel of Thomas directly refer to these events.

	A Look at Carriers Godless Comments in Review
		Moreover, though the Gospels are anonymous, and written some 40 to 60 years (at the most) after Jesus lived, let’s not forget they contain embedded eyewitness material and still living witnesses could have declared inaccuracies publicly, but apparently did not (look for this same argument by Carrier below in reference to Plato recordings).
		Carrier then states that "the Gospels were written in a highly contentious atmosphere of competing religious sects, each seeking to establish a particular view of Jesus with a mission of salvation and conversion." This shouldn’t count as a negative.
		On the Gospel of Mark, Carrier states that "his motives seem to have been to rework a cultural epic, not to write accurate history." To that, I believe Carrier is in error on the former assertion to a large degree and correct to a degree on the latter assertion.
