4.0 out of 5 stars
The complete unearthing story!,
By
This review is from: Unearthing the Lost Words of Jesus: The Discovery and Text of the Gospel of Thomas (Seastone Series) (Hardcover)
". It contains a very complete story of the finding of GThomas and follows the ms to initial publication. There are photographs and a couple of maps in this first section. The text is done very much in the same style as Borgs recent "The Lost Gospel Q" and it features a few notes by J. D. Crossan. Also by Crossan, a five page commentary at the end called "Paradise Regained", where his emphasis is on the protology of and asceticism in GThomas. This is packaged for the general public but is worth the price for the 8 photographs, 2 small maps, and the complete "unearthing" story.

For gnostics only...,

This review is from: Unearthing the Lost Words of Jesus: The Discovery and Text of the Gospel of Thomas (Seastone Series) (Hardcover)
I have not finished to read this book but so far I love it. The best part is the chapter with the recorded word of Jesus, which I find enlightning. It also makes me sad to realize that humankind has not evolved since then.One last thing, if you are a religious ( ) (I believe 1000% in the bible...) do not buy with this book, you wiil not understand it. |
