Wouldn't the third quarter of the second century be 150 - 175? The page currently notes it as 175 - 200. (Anon.)

Yes, last quarter is correct. Text now corrected. Thank you. --Wetman 05:59, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

I am not expert enough to edit this page, but the grammar is terrible. Some sentences in the first paragraph do not make sense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.195.57.31 (talk) 04:39, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Without changing information, I've completed sentences, made the text clearer and set it under three simple headings. --Wetman 05:59, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Someone wanted to revert the following, as original research: "Comparison of the two on-line translations confirms that it is not the same text discussed here." What would Jon Stewart of The daily Show say of Wikipedians' concept of originality and reseacth when he heard this! --Wetman (talk) 05:46, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Here's another attempted suppression (in italics) that should be discussed rather than silently censored:

"The Apocalypse of Peter was eventually not accepted into the Christian canon and thus remains today among the New Testament apocrypha, though the numerous references to it attest to its being once in wide circulation. Thus the disappearance of every single manuscript of the work is perhaps not entirely coincidental."

May Wikipedia make any reference at all to the concerted, consistent official suppression over the centuries of non-mainstream Christian texts? Perhaps not. --Wetman (talk) 06:46, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 4 Esther?

I never heard of 4 Esther. Perhaps 4 Esdras was meant? Rwflammang (talk) 21:23, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
