Letter of Lentulus
The Letter of Lentulus is an epistle supposedly written by Publius Lentulus to the Roman Senate, giving a physical and personal description of Jesus. Publius Lentulus was, according to the ''Deeds of the Divine Augustus'', a Roman Consul during the reign of Augustus (27 BC-14 AD), and is said to have been Governor of Judea before Pontius Pilate.
An English translation of the letter was published in 1680.〔''Publius Lentulus, His Report to the Senate of Rome concerning Jesus Christ'' (London: Francis Smith, 1680). ()〕
==Authenticity==
The letter of Lentulus is regarded as apocryphal〔Wilhelm Schneemelcher (editor), ''New Testament Apocrypha: Gospels and Related Writings, Volume 1'', page 66 (James Clarke & Co., 1991). ISBN 0-227-67915-6〕 for a number of reasons. No Governor of Jerusalem or Procurator of Judea is known to have been called Lentulus, and a Roman governor would not have addressed the Senate in the way represented,.〔''The Catholic Encyclopedia: An International Work of Reference on the Constitution, Doctrine, Discipline, and History of the Catholic Church, Volume 9'' (Universal Knowledge Foundation, 1913).〕 However, the ''Deeds of the Divine Augustus'' list a Publius Lentulus as being elected as a Roman Consul during the reign of Augustus (27 BC-14 AD).〔6:1, "(the consulship of Marcus Vinicius and Quintius Lucrecius (19 BC) ) and later in that of Publius Lentulus and Gnaeus L((18 BC) and a third time in that of Paullus Fabius Maximus and Quintus Tubero (11 BC) the senate and the Roman people agreed ) that [I should be made sole guardian of the laws and morals with the highest authority, but I did not accept any magistracy, though offered, which was contrary to the custome of our ancestors." Robert Kenneth Sherk (editor and translator), ''The Roman Empire: Augustus to Hadrian'', page 43 (Translated documents of Greece & Rome 6, Cambridge University Press, 1988). ISBN 0-521-33887-5. See also [http://classics.mit.edu/Augustus/deeds.html].〕 Also, a Roman writer would not have employed the expressions "prophet of truth", "sons of men" or "Jesus Christ". The former two are Hebrew idioms, and the third is taken from the New Testament. The letter, therefore, gives a description of Jesus such as Christian piety conceived him.
