[Mrs. Don-o]

I don't know anything about Hebrew apocryphal writings, nor their redactions of the Gospels, nor have I the time or interest to get deep into the controversies, which I wouldn't have the competence to judge anyhow (I don't read Hebrew or Greek.)

My (one-glance) impression is that such versions are interesting to specialists from a scholarly point of view (particularly the history of medieval Christian-Jewish polemics); but they should not be used by Christians for devotional or liturgical purposes, because they were not and are not used by the Church.

Is this, in your opinion, a fair impression?

Oh yes, very fair. We’re on the same page here.
