The gnostic Gospels of Jesus

the definitive collection of mystical gospels and secret books about Jesus of Nazareth

By Meyer, Marvin C.

Publishers Summary:
"The Gnostic Gospels of Jesus offers fresh English translations of some of the earliest and most reliable texts that shed light on the Christian messiah, Jesus of Nazareth. The astounding discovery sixty years ago by an Egyptian camel driver of a jar filled with ancient papyrus manuscripts, known collectively as the Nag Hammadi library, was one of the archaeological finds of the century. These fragments at Nag Hammadi, painstakingly restored and translated, reveal an alternative perspective on Jesus and the beliefs of many of his earliest followers."--BOOK JACKET.
