To write the earlier essays I found it helpful to prepare a table of comparisons between the Gospel of Peter and the canonical gospels. I’ve added the link here for convenience for myself and anyone else interested.
The following two tabs change content below.

The table is very nice and helpful. I was struck by the fact that Peter seemed to be closer to Matthew than any of the other gospels.
It certainly appears to come closer in Matthew in its taste for the garishly miraculous. Gi-normous unearthly beings stretching out of tombs in GPeter, zombies walking around after a cosmic earthquake opened their tombs in Matthew.
