The Gospel of Peter or Gospel according to Peter, is an ancient text concerning Jesus  Christ, only partially known today. It is considered a non-canonical gospel and was rejected as apocryphal by the Catholic Church's synods of Carthage and Rome, which established the New Testament canon.  It was the first of the non-canonical gospels to be rediscovered, preserved in the dry sands of Egypt.   It uses all four canonical Gospels, and is the earliest uncanonical account of the Passion that exists
