Sommario/riassunto: This book explores the Gnostic Gospels, focusing on texts like The Gospel of Judas, The Gospel of Mary Magdalene, and The Gospel of Thomas. These writings, discovered at Nag Hammadi, offer insights into early Christian beliefs and the intimate relationships between Jesus and his disciples. The author, Alan Jacobs, provides poetic transcriptions to preserve the essence of these fragmented texts. The book delves into the origins and cosmology of Gnosticism, highlighting its dualistic views and the challenge posed to orthodox Christianity. It aims to make these ancient and mystical texts accessible to contemporary readers, unraveling their spiritual and theological significance.
