===Jewish-Christian gospels=== {{Main article|Jewish–Christian gospels}} The Jewish–Christian Gospels were [[gospels]] of a [[Jewish Christian]] character quoted by [[Clement of Alexandria]], [[Origen]], [[Eusebius of Caesarea|Eusebius]], [[Epiphanius of Salamis|Epiphanius]], [[Jerome]] and probably [[Didymus the Blind]].{{sfn|Elliott|2005|p=3}} Most modern scholars have concluded that there existed one gospel in Aramaic/Hebrew and at least two in Greek, although a minority argue that there were only two: one Aramaic/Hebrew and one Greek.{{sfn|Ehrman|Pleše|2011|p=199}} None of these gospels survive today, but attempts have been made to reconstruct them from references in the [[Church Fathers]]. The reconstructed texts of the gospels are usually categorized under New Testament Apocrypha. The standard edition of [[Schneemelcher]] describes the texts of three Jewish–Christian gospels as follows:{{sfn|Vielhauer|Strecker|1991|pp=134–78}} #The [[Gospel of the Ebionites]] ("GE") – 7 quotations by Epiphanius. #The [[Gospel of the Hebrews]] ("GH") – 1 quotation ascribed to Cyril of Jerusalem, plus GH 2–7 quotations by Clement, Origen, and Jerome. #The [[Gospel of the Nazarenes]] ("GN") – GN 1 to GN 23 are mainly from Jerome; GN 24 to GN 36 are from medieval sources. Some scholars consider that the two last named are in fact the same source.<ref>Craig A. Evans</ref>{{full citation needed|date=May 2025}}
