2/11 • Arabic Gospel of the Infancy
What did later Christians imagine about Jesus' childhood and the family's journey through Egypt? This collection answers with healings, encounters with robbers, and miracles involving the child's clothes and bathwater. It belongs to Arabic Christian storytelling, with connections to Syriac traditions; its composition date is uncertain. Spirit Nation has Walker's 1870 English translation, all 55 chapters, preserving one historical version of a story collection that circulated in different forms.
