"The Gospel According to Peter: A Study" by Walter Richard Cassels is a late 19th-century theological exploration of an ancient Christian writing linked to the Apostle Peter. The study carefully examines pieces of this text, giving expert opinions on what's inside and how it connects to both accepted and less common Christian writings. It starts by setting the scene with ancient Egypt and key archaeological finds that help us understand old Christian writings. Cassels talks about the discovery of Greek writings in Akhmīm in 1886-87, focusing on the Gospel according to Peter and how it tells the story trial, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus. This initial part vividly recounts these events, but with different details than the well-known Gospels, which makes people wonder what the Gospel according to Peter means for Christian beliefs and how it fits in with what's already taught.
