Ásgeirsson who also writes the introduction and explanations.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of the 20th century, a collection of papyrus manuscripts was unearthed that provided invaluable insight into early Christianity and the history of Christianity. The manuscript that attracted the most attention was the Gospel of Thomas, the so-called \"fifth gospel\", which is referred to in the writings of the Church Fathers but had previously been considered lost. The Gospel of Thomas is believed to have been written at the beginning of the second century and is therefore one of the oldest surviving sources about Jesus of Nazareth and is related to the earliest sources on which the New Testament gospels were based. It contains a collection of comments and parables\u003cbr\u003e attributed to Jesus, is completely different from the other gospels in form and although their content is in some respects similar, the emphases are completely different. There is no mention of Jesus' suffering, death and resurrection, the doctrine bears the appearance of a gnostic interpretation, where the secular world is considered to be entirely evil, and radical social criticism is prominent.","brand":"Bókin.is","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51123758924104,"sku":"OSC-49443","price":2900.0,"currency_code":"ISK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/4029\/9848\/files\/54946.jpg?v=1754766283","url":"https:\/\/www.bokin.is\/en\/products\/tomasarguspjall-86140-49443","provider":"bokin.is","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
