In a long letter of advice and instruction to Peter Carr, dated from Paris on August 10, 1787, at the end of the paragraph on Religion, Jefferson mentioned: “ I forgot to observe when speaking of the New testament that you should read all the histories of Christ, as well of those whom a council of ecclesiastics have decided for us to be Pseudo-evangelists, as those they named Evangelists. because these Pseudo-evangelists pretended to inspiration as much as the others, and you are to judge their pretensions by your own reason, & not by the reason of those ecclesiastics. most of these are lost. there are some however still extant, collected by Fabricius which I will endeavor to get & send you.
Peter Carr was the son of Dabney Carr, Jefferson’s brother-in-law.
