CONTENTS | Contents |
The Gospel of Thomas, completely preserved in a papyrus Coptic manuscript discovered in 1945 at Nag Hammadi, Egypt, is a list of 114 sayings attributed to Jesus. Some of those sayings resemble those found in the four canonical Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), but other sayings were unknown until its discovery.
The Gospel is considered a forgery and is considered a heretical apocryphal text.
Authorship
The general census among Christians and secular historians alike is that the Gospel of Thomas was written by an unknown author in the 2nd Century A.D.
