So you have the Acts of Peter, and you have the Revelation of Peter, and you have the Gospels of Peter. So how do we do our due diligence to try to tie this back? So there's two letters of Peter, 1 and 2 Peter, in the New Testament. And the early Christians are like, we've got to make sure we can tie these to Peter.

Or the book of Jude and the book of James, which are ascribed to the brothers of Jesus. They were like, can we really say that those are written by those people? And so there are some books that the dust kind of takes time to settle on within the whole 27 canon because these groups are debating and discussing, you know, well, why – why do we have these ones and not other ones?

And so there are various canon lists. that come up throughout the ancient world where some people are hypothesizing, well, maybe this book is part of it, or maybe this book is part of it. But it's this ongoing conversation of people.

And by basically the end of the second century, we have more or less unanimous agreement of the 27 books being those that encapsulate scripture that can be tied to either someone who knew Jesus or someone who knew someone who knew Jesus.

So you have all the Roman and Jewish officials camping out in front of the tomb, which also gives away the fact that like no Jewish priest

on the eve of Passover is going to be camping out in front of a dead body. Like they didn't do that.
