Summary "Supernatural Religion, Vol. 2 (of 3)" by Walter Richard Cassels is a scholarly examination of the foundations of Christian beliefs regarding divine revelation, written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the historical and textual analysis of early Christian writings, particularly focusing on apocryphal texts like the Clementines, in order to scrutinize their authenticity and relation to the canonical gospels. It addresses significant theological disputes, especially regarding the role of the Apostle Paul and the competing narratives of early Christianity. The opening of this volume introduces an inquiry into the "Clementines," an assemblage of apocryphal works attributed to the Apostle Peter and associated with early Christian sects, particularly the Ebionites. Cassels outlines the structure and content of the "Clementines," emphasizing the dialogues between Peter and Simon the Magician, which serve to challenge heretical views and establish what the author claims as true doctrine. The discussion highlights the various interpretations of quotations from Jesus and other figures, placing them in a broader context of religious writings from the early centuries, thereby setting the stage for a critical evaluation of how these texts contribute to our understanding of the historical Jesus and the formation of Christian doctrine.
