Parece ser que algunos cristianos llamaron así a estos evangelios porque, según decían, contenían enseñanzas ocultas de Jesús que iban destinadas a los iniciados. Más tarde, sin embargo, la palabra apócrifo adquirió la connotación de “falso, desautorizado, origen dudoso”, sobre todo entre los miembros de la Iglesia. Actualmente las opiniones están divididas.
