The Newly Discovered Sayings of Jesus FRIENDS JOURNAL OME information about the Sayings of Jesus, with which S Henry J. Cadbury deals in the "Editorial Comments" of this issue, is listed here for the benefit of readers who may have missed the newspaper story. A large number of the Sayings of Jesus that are part of the documents can also be found word for word in the four Gospels. But Dr. Cullmann stressed the fact that the Gospel of Thomas differs from the canonical four Gospels because it is not set in the narrative form which is so characteristic of our Gospels. The designation as a "gospel" is therefore Published weekly, but biweekly from June 13 to September 19 and December 19 to January 2, at 1615 Cherry Street, hardly justified. Apart from sayings, including parables and 2, (Rittenhouse 6-7669) By Friends Publishing Corporation the beatitudes, which parallel the Gospel text verbally, and WILLIAM HUBBEN MILDRED A.

At the same time our contacts in the ecumeni­ cal or undenominational Christian bodies have reminded us of our common historical heritage. Thus new sym­ pathies have led the first group to regret the emphasis that has even in Christendom made the church seem dogmatic and intolerant and have led the second group to regret that early Friends spoke so emphatically of the divine revelation among pagans. They would belittle Quaker differences from other Christians as being only secondary matters.
