For the first time, The Gospel of St. Thomas offers a commentary of the Gospels of Thomas, previously only available to theologians and scholars. Richard Valantasis provides fresh translations of the Coptic and Greek text, with an illuminating commentary, examining the text line by line. A general introduction is provided, outlining previous scholarly debates and situating the Gospel in its historical and theological contexts. The Gospel of St. Thomas presents Thomas' gospel as an integral part of the canon of Biblical writings, informing us further about the literature of the Judeo-Christian tradition and the study of early Christianity.
