Abstract

The Ethiopic text of the second-century Apocalypse of Peter may be divided into two parts. The first section (chaps. 1–6) begins with aprediction by Jesus while on the Mount of Olives about the coming of false Christs and is evidently based on Matthew 24. Next, Jesus shows his disciples the future in the palm of his right hand, revealing events typical of Jewish eschatology: resurrection, judgment, and eschatological woes.
