<P> The Gospel of Judas is another controversial and ancient text that purports to tell the story of the gospel from the perspective of Judas, the disciple who is usually said to have betrayed Jesus . It paints an unusual picture of the relationship between Jesus and Judas, in that it appears to interpret Judas's act not as betrayal, but rather as an act of obedience to the instructions of Jesus . The text was recovered from a cave in Egypt by a thief and thereafter sold on the black market until it was finally discovered by a collector who, with the help of academics from Yale and Princeton, was able to verify its authenticity . The document itself does not claim to have been authored by Judas (it is, rather, a gospel about Judas), and is known to date to at least 180 AD . </P> <P> The Gospel of Mary was originally written in Greek during the 2nd century . It is often interpreted as a Gnostic text . It consists mainly of dialog between Mary Magdalene and the other disciples . It is typically not considered a gospel by scholars since it does not focus on the life of Jesus . </P> <P> The Gospel of Barnabas was a gospel which is claimed to be written by Barnabas one of the twelve apostles . It contradicts the ministry of Jesus in cannonical New Testament, but has clear parallels with the Islamic faith, by mentioning Muhammad as Messenger of God . It also strongly deny Pauline doctrine, and Jesus testified himself as a prophet, not the son of God . </P> <P> A genre of "Infancy gospels" (Greek: protoevangelion) arose in the 2nd century, and includes the Gospel of James, which introduces the concept of the Perpetual Virginity of Mary, and the Infancy Gospel of Thomas (not to be confused with the absolutely different sayings Gospel of Thomas), both of which related many miraculous incidents from the life of Mary and the childhood of Jesus that are not included in the canonical gospels . </P>
