The Gospel of Nicodemus, also known as the Acts of Pilate [1] (Latin: Acta Pilati; Ancient Greek: Πράξεις Πιλάτου, romanized: Praxeis Pilatou), is an apocryphal gospel purporting to be derived from an original work written by Nicodemus, who appears in the Gospel of John as an acquaintance of Jesus.

It is considered a non-canonical gospel and was rejected as apocryphal by the Catholic Church's synods of Carthage and Rome, which established the New Testament canon.
