	Gospel of James
		The Gospel of James is also sometimes known as the Infancy Gospel of James or the Protevangelium of James.
		One of the primary themes is the work and grace of God in Mary's life, Mary's personal purity, and her perpetual virginity before, during and after the birth of Jesus, as confirmed by the midwives after she gave birth.
		While the Gospel of James has never been part of the New Testament canon, it does provide the basis for many of the hymns used in the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, and for much of their teachings concerning Mary.

	Gospel of James - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Gospel of James may be the earliest surviving document attesting the veneration of Mary and claiming her continuing virginity.
		The Gospel of James is one of several surviving Infancy Gospels that give an idea of the miracle literature that was created to satisfy the hunger of early Christians for more detail about the early life of their Savior.
		Among further traditions not present in the four canonical gospels are the birth of Jesus in a cave, the martyrdom of John the Baptist's father Zechariah during the slaughter of the infants, and Joseph's being elderly when Jesus was born.

		James asks, “Has not God chosen the poor of this world to be rich, and heirs of the kingdom, which He promised to those who love Him?” (2:5).
		James is saying that if we don’t have the same kinds of works that Paul addressed—works that show we are faithful—then we are not going to be saved.
		James also uses another illustration of the body and spirit when he says, “As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith if it does not have works is dead also” (Jas.

	What is a Gospel?
		Gospel is derived from the Greek word euaggelion and means "good news." The genre of gospels include the four canonical books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John as well as some extrabiblical gospels written in the second century.
		Some scholars still suggest that the gospels are derivations from other genres of the period such as the dialogue, the tragedy, or the Greco-Roman literature piece.
		The Gospel of Mark is a tersely-written, fast-paced rollercoaster ride that drops us into the River Jordan with John the Baptist and doesn't pause for breath until we reach the empty tomb.

	Gospel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The rediscovery of the Gospel of Thomas, a sayings gospel remarkably similar to the form that Q was thought to take, and containing many of the sayings shared only between Matthew and Luke, but in a more raw form, has given a large degree of credence to the hypothesis.
		Two non-canonical gospels that are considered to be among the earliest in composition are the sayings Gospel of Thomas and the narrative Gospel of Peter.
		The dating of the Gospel of Thomas is particularly controversial, as there is some suspicion in critical schools of scholarship that it predates the canonical Gospels, which would, if conclusively proven, have a profound impact on the understanding of their origin.

	Infancy Gospel Of James (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In fact, its popularity is attested to by the numerous surviving ancient translations, the earliest dating back to the third century, and the early liturgical use of the gospel among some Eastern churches.
		Among the extracanonical traditions recorded in the gospel are the introduction of Joseph as a widower with several children who is merely Mary's guardian, the birth of Jesus in a cave, and the martyrdom of John the Baptist's father Zechariah during the slaughter of the infants.
		The author identifies himself as James, presumably the brother of Jesus, and claims to have written shortly after the death of Herod in 4 B.C. This dating is unlikely, however, for the work betrays evidence of redactional passages from both Matthew and Luke.

		The Protevangelion of James also sometimes known as the Gospel of James or the Infancy Gospel of James is generally ascribed to the 2nd century AD.

	Infancy Gospel of James
		In The Other Gospels, Ron Cameron says that the name Protevangelium "implies that most of the events recorded in this 'initial gospel' of James occur prior to those recorded in the gospels of the New Testament." The gospel received this name when it was first published in the sixteenth century.
		There is, for example, the Protevangel of James, which begins with an account of the birth of Mary to Joachim and Anna in their old age, when they had given up all hope of having children.
		The Infancy Gospel of James itself may have been dependent on a harmony of Matthew and Luke, but in any case it stands in the harmonizing spirit of the era before the four canonical gospels were considered to be sacred scripture.

	Ancient 'gospel' gives additional details on Jesus' birth
		The Infancy Gospel of James is a protevangelium, or pre-gospel, because it begins well before the life of Jesus; it is part of the Apocrypha, a variety of early Christian writings that did not make it into the New Testament.
		"The Gospel of James was condemned in the West and as a result it didn't have the same afterlife as in the East," said Nicholas Constas, a professor of early Christian and Byzantine studies at Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology in Brookline, Mass.
		An example of the Infancy Gospel's incorporation into Orthodoxy, Constas said, is "an iconographic tradition where this whole (Infancy Gospel) has been illustrated." He cited some of the frescos in Panagia Tou Arakou, a late 12th-century Byzantine church in Cyprus.

	The Gospel of John and the Hellenization of Jesus
		For John, nothing is at it seems and Jesus symbolizes the catalyst for eternal life and the path with which to achieve everlasting life in the divine realm where Jesus has descended from.
		Even the casual reader of the four gospels can easily discern the jump between the Synoptic tradition with Mark through Matthew and the apocryphal John.
		John removes the offensive references to Jesus as a Jewish Messiah that are particular to the earlier gospels, in order to present the Logos in more palatable form.

		In Chapter II, Jerome quotes from the "Gospel according to the Hebrews" and I believe what he is saying is that he is quoting from a work that was written by James.
		Now it would appear that from the context that Jerome is quoting from the "Gospel of James", which is one of the works in the entire volume known as the "Gospel According to the Hebrews", of which, a Hebrew original of canonical Matthew was also part of the collection.
		This is not in Matthew, but apparently either the Gospel of James or some other work in the volume of the "Gospel according to the Hebrews".

		In short, the Gospel of the Grace of God is the Gospel the Apostle Paul preached to Jews and Gentiles and wrote about in his letters.
		Why do we call the Gospel Peter preached the "Kingdom Gospel" and the Gospel Paul preached the "Gospel of the Grace of God" or "Grace Gospel?" The primary emphasis of Peter's Gospel was obedience to God's Law "by works" so He would send Christ to earth to set up His earthly Messianic Kingdom.
