This is one of the apocryphal gospels that attract perennial interest, often alleged to contain traditions of the “real truth of Christianity” and consequently to have been suppressed by the Church.

 31-Genesis - Zoho Writer
Jacob's last words concerning the character and continuing development of God's promises to Israel through his twelve sons are full of prophetic significance.
They should be traced back to the source of all Old Testament prophecy, Gen esis 3:15, sometimes called the Protevangelion (meaning the earliest form of God's good news, the gospel.) This highly symbolic verse was the "germ" from which all future prophecy was gradually developed.
In this Protevangelion, God described the course of two lines of humanity - of two seeds at enmity within the world.

James’ Protevangelion, or Infancy Gospel) and the Infancy Gospel of Thomas the Israelite (not to be confused with the "Gospel of Thomas").
