Noteworthy from the book

1. Unfortunately, different books titled Acts of Pilate were written in the early church and early medieval periods. Most, if not all, scholars believe the one that Justin Martyr refers to has been lost and that what we have are later copies that date to the mid-300s at the earliest. Since this webpage focuses on NT Apocrypha written before 200, the later versions will not be discussed.
