Gospel of Joseph of Arimathea

The Gospel of Joseph of Arimathia is an apocryphal gospel written in a late form of Old Albic, preserved in a linen book found in the Tresco Library. The text was allegedly composed by Joseph of Arimathia at Glastonbury and relates the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth up to the crucifixion. It largely agrees with the canonical gospels of the New Testament, though certain elements of Christian faith, such as the virgin birth, are absent, and Jesus is not refered to as "son of God" but as a "prophet".
