Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

The Lost Chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, also known as the Sonnini Manuscript or The 29th Chapter of Acts, is a short text purported to be the lost final chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, in which Paul the Apostle journeys to Roman Britain. Mainstream scholarship considers the "Lost Chapter" an example of modern apocrypha. The text originated in London in 1871; its author is unknown. The intent of the "Lost Chapter" was likely to support British Israelism, a pseudohistorical belief popular at the time of its publication. The canonical book of Acts has 28 chapters; the "Lost Chapter" is a putative 29th chapter. The canonical Acts ends abruptly with Paul under house arrest in Rome. The "Lost Chapter" does not explain how Paul is freed from his imprisonment.
