Paul of Tarsus (Gospel According To Paul; did not know Jesus in life, though he claimed to have seen the resurrected Jesus)
Gospel of Thomas (114 sayings and parables of Jesus organized into a simple list; says nothing about Jesus' life, his death, or his resurrection.)
Gospel of Mary Magdalene (not an apostle; gnostic gospel; Mary Magdalene appears as a disciple, singled out by Jesus for special teachings)
