  • The Gospel of Thomas by APRIL D. Deconick Isla Carroll and Percy E
    The Gospel of Thomas By APRIL D. DeCONICK Isla Carroll and Percy E. Turner Professor of Biblical Studies, Rice University This article views the Gospel of Thomas as the product of an early Eastern form of Christianity, most probably originating in a Syrian context. The text should not be seen as representing some Gnostic or marginal sapiential form of Christianity, rather it reflects a trajectory in ‘orthodox’ Christianity that valued mystical or esoteric teaching. Such traditions have been found in mainstream Christianity throughout its history. The text of the Gospel of Thomas is understood to be a rolling corpus, or aggregate of sayings that represent different moments in the life and history of the early Thomasine community. KEYWORDS Gospel of Thomas, Gnosticism, Community Memory, Rolling Corpus, early Syrian Christianity, Mysticism If there is one early Christian gospel that has a career both famous and infamous, it is the Gospel of Thomas. It has been called a ‘direct and almost unbroken continuation of Jesus’ own teaching – unparalleled anywhere in the canonical tradition’ 1 – as well as a ‘perversion of Christianity by those who wanted to create Jesus in their own image’.2 It has been understood as an early Jewish Christian document, preserving independent Jesus traditions older than the New Testament gospels, as well as a late Gnostic gospel entirely dependent on the canonical gospels. On the one hand it has been lauded as the ‘fifth gospel’, while on the other it has been dismissed as ‘heretical’. What are we to make of this enigmatic gospel containing 114 known and unknown sayings of Jesus? 1.

  • Nag Hammadi, Gnosticism and New Testament Interpretation
    Grace Theological Journal 8.2 (1987) 195-212 Copyright © 1987 by Grace Theological Seminary. Cited with permission. NAG HAMMADI, GNOSTICISM AND NEW TESTAMENT INTERPRETATION WILLIAM W. COMBS The Gnostic heresy alluded to in the NT and widely repudiated by Christian writers in the second century and after has been in- creasingly studied in the last forty years. The discovery in upper Egypt of an extensive collection of Gnostic writings on papyri trans- formed a poorly known movement in early Christianity into a well documented heresy of diverse beliefs and practices. The relationship of Gnosticism and the NT is an issue that has not been resolved by the new documents. Attempts to explain the theology of the NT as dependent on Gnostic teachings rest on ques- tionable hypotheses. The Gnostic redeemer-myth cannot be docu- mented before the second century: Thus, though the Gnostic writings provide helpful insight into the heresies growing out of Christianity, it cannot be assumed that the NT grew out of Gnostic teachings. * * * INTRODUCTION STUDENTS of the NT have generally been interested in the subject of Gnosticism because of its consistent appearance in discussions of the "Colossian heresy" and the interpretation of John's first epistle. It is felt that Gnosticism supplies the background against which these and other issues should be understood. However, some who use the terms "Gnostic" and "Gnosticism" lack a clear understanding of the movement itself. In fact, our knowledge of Gnosticism has suffered considerably from a lack of primary sources. Now, however, with the discovery of the Nag Hammadi (hereafter, NH) codices, this void is being filled.

    ATTRIDGE/VALENTINIAN AND SETHIAN APOCALYPSES 173 Valentinian and Sethian Apocalyptic Traditions* HAROLD W. ATTRIDGE The paper reexamines the relationship between “apocalyptic” and “gnostic” traditions, on the assumption that global definitions of these phenomena are problematic. Valentinian and Sethian corpora in the Nag Hammadi collection display different appropriations of apocalyptic literary forms and conceptual schemes. Apart from a few late works with traces of Valentinian positions, this tradition largely ignores features characteristic of apocalyptic literature. Valentinian eschatology seems to be founded primarily on philosophical cosmology and psychology. Sethian texts preserve many features of Jewish revelatory literature, and many details associated with various eschatological schemes familiar from apocalyptic sources. The most extensive use of the characteristic “heavenly ascent” topos in Sethian literature, however, seems to be a third-century development, perhaps responding to contemporary forms of religious propaganda. It has been almost forty years since R. M. Grant made his famous, and frequently discussed, suggestion that Gnosticism was born out of disap- pointed apocalyptic hopes.1 While containing an element of truth, the very formulation seems curiously dated. At the end of the millennium we are much more aware of the difficulties of dealing with each term of *A version of this paper was presented to the joint session of the Nag Hammadi and Pseudepigrapha groups at the annual meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature in Orlando, November 22, 1998. The subject of the joint session was the relationship of “apocalyptic” and “Gnosticism.” 1. Robert M.

  • The Gnostic Coptic Apocalypse of Paul: a Powerful Gnostic Witness
    The Gnostic Coptic Apocalypse of Paul: A Powerful Gnostic Witness Steven A. Armstrong, MA, MAHum, MDiv, FRC Go directly to the text of the paper Abstract The Gnostic Coptic Apocalypse of Paul is a relatively brief work from the Nag Hammadi Library whose text, especially at its opening, is quite corrupt. Although foundational work on the text was done in the late twentieth century in the years since its publication in 1963, the Coptic Apocalypse of Paul has only begun to attract increased scholarly attention in the early twenty- first century. This paper deals with the major issues concerning the text, its state, content, and background, and introduces readers to this Gnostic text of the mid-to-late second century. Its “Gnostic” lineage is arguably Valentinian and Marcosian. The major thrust of the work is to exalt Paul and his mission above the preaching and authority of the other Apostles, even so far as to make Paul a type of the Perfect Aeon, as Christ himself was. Its interpretation of the key Scripture passages uses a “Gnostic” allegorical hermeneutic. The author has used and reworked several motifs to fit them to the purpose of the work: a heavenly journey of the soul, judgment, and interrogation of the soul. It is clear, concise, and powerful. The author has pared down the mythological elements to the minimum and used canonical quotations and allusions subtly but effectively. In many ways, this work is arguably one of the most unified of the Nag Hammadi Library, and the most lucid. L’Apocalypse Gnostique Copte de Paul : un Témoignage Gnostique Puissant Steven A.

  • Apocryphon of James | 1 APOCRYPHON of JAMES
    Apocryphon Of James | 1 APOCRYPHON OF JAMES Also known as the Apocryphal Epistle of James, the second tractate in Codex I of the NAG HAMMADI LIBRARY. It occupies sixteen pages, all well preserved except for the first three. The Coptic text apparently had no title. It is a translation into Subakhmimic Coptic of a Greek work that taught a rather conservative Christian gnosticism. Since it deals extensively with the subject of martyrdom, its unknown author must have produced it before the peace of the church in A.D. 314; how long before is uncertain. Equally uncertain is the place of writing, though this must have been in the eastern Mediterranean world, and Egypt is likely. The main body of the work, which consists of a series of speeches put in the mouth of the risen Jesus, calls itself an “apocryphon.” Jesus is represented as reappearing to the “twelve disciples” 550 days after the Resurrection and taking James the Lord’s brother and Peter aside. To them he imparts—”openly” rather than “in parables”—a definitive revelation superior to the canonical one. The “apocryphon” closes on page 15 with an account of Jesus’ real and final ascent into heaven. In a mystical vision, James and Peter follow him in stages that correspond to the ascents of the heart, the mind, and the spirit. The unexpected return of the other disciples during the vision, however, prevents their spirits from penetrating to the throne of God. This “apocryphon” is preceded and followed by a “letter” from James “in the Hebrew alphabet,” addressed to a recipient whose name is mutilated.

What Is Gnosticism? During the second century ad a number of Christian groups were vying with each other to legitimate their particular interpretation of Christianity. History records that the group that eventually won the battle became known as “orthodox” Christians, while those who lost became the “heterodox.” Latter-day Saints, however, recognize that by the sec- ond century the Apostasy was already in full swing and that the labels of orthodox/heterodox are largely artificial terms.
