Origin

Old English gōdspel, from gōd 'good' + spel 'news, a story' (see spell²), translating ecclesiastical Latin bona annuntiatio or bonus nuntius, used to gloss ecclesiastical Latin evangelium, from Greek euangelion 'good news' (see evangel); after the vowel was shortened in Old English, the first syllable was mistaken for god 'God'.

The Good News Bible is an English translation of the Bible, published in 1976, whose name refers to the root meaning of gospel itself. The word is not related to God, but was formed from Old English gōd ‘good’ and spel ‘news, a story’, and was a translation of Greek euangelion ‘good news’, the source of our words evangelism (early 17th century) and evangelist (Middle English). The rock musical Godspell, based on the Gospel of St Matthew and first produced in 1971, took its title from the original spelling of the word.
