Thirty Essays on the Gospel of Thomas
These
thirty Essays are independent of each other yet are all related to or
derived from a study of the Gospel of Thomas. Thus they look at it from
different points of view. They are the result of considering every possible
aspect of the Gospel and its origin.
Some Essays consider the ancient document itself, how it came into
existence, the rôle of Thomas the disciple of Jesus, the ancient
mystical community nurtured by the Gospel, and the Gospel's own
relation to the New Testament.
Special value lies in the many Essays that expound crucial
Teachings of Jesus and show how sayings recorded in the Gospel of
Thomas link together into a woven whole.
While this book is primarily a companion to the author's classic translation of
The Gospel of Thomas, it is also a source of
information about the Gospel, its creation and its meaning that
is available no-where else. It is indispensable for anyone seeking to gain an
awareness of that ancient record of Jesus' spiritual teachings.
