Description: |
Examines the birth and development of early Christianity up to the end of the second century CE and places early Christianity in its social, cultural, political and economic context. This book provides an English translation of the Gospel of Thomas, which includes the original 'kernel' of the Gospel and the sayings. |
Synopsis: |
This title provides the first comprehensive analysis of the stages of development of the Gospel of Thomas, including a reconstruction, translation, and analysis of the original form of this gospel, the Kernel Gospel of Thomas, as well as the later accretions. The author develops a complete analysis of the origin and meaning of Gospel of Thomas as it developed through various oral and literary compositional stages, from the earliest apocalyptic Kernel Gospel from Jerusalem (30-50 C.E.) to its final form as an early Christian mystical Gospel with Alexandrian affinities (90 C.E.). |
