One of the few books to give an overview of every gnostic book within the nag hammadi library. And, it's usually a pretty good one. The only downside is that the Catholic author seems at times a little overly worried that someone might decide to abandon his religion for one of the gnostic revivals. As such, it's very much a product of the time it was written. I'm sure it was picked up in the first place because the da vinci code was still the hot news of the day, and gnosticism as a looming potential threat to mainstream religion also sits soundly on that wave.

The founding of the early Christian Church had as much to do with politics and intrigue as it did with theology and religion. This history and the documents uncovered at the Nag Hammadi site in Egypt have formed the basis of some of the most interesting and mysterious questions today. Was Mary Magdalene a disciple of Jesus? What role did Jesus mother Mary play? What does the Gospel of Thomas tells us? Enter The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Gnostic Gospels. Expert author J. Michael Matkin has provided easy and understandable overviews to all these major works and more. With chapters discussing each of the major and minor documents found at Nag Hammadi, the book also includes an overview of Gnosticism and its most influential people. Readers get an easy, understandable view of the early Church, these relatively new documents, and their meaning to modern religion and philosophy today. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
