Many of the section headings for this book come from The Pepysian Gospel Harmony, 1922 Oxford edition; Margery Goates, Editor. I am also deeply indebted to Margery Goates for her invaluable analytical summary of the Pepys Gospel Harmony. Her analytical summary of the entire work showing the parallel passages from the canonical gospels made this book possible.

I would also like to thank Yuri Kuchinsky -- author of The Magdalene Gospel and the moderator for loisy@yahoogroups.com, an email group devoted in part to discussing the Pepys Gospel Harmony. Yuri’s herculean efforts in maintaining a web site for the Pepys Gospel Harmony first brought my attention to the existence of this priceless manuscript and the marvels of its contents.

And finally, I would like to thank the unknown author of the Pepysian Gospel Harmony MS 2498 for bringing me joy.
