The Teaching of Jesus in the Gospel of Thomas
The Gospel of Thomas is one of the 52 manuscripts written in Coptic and discovered in 1945 in Egypt. It comprises an anthology of 114 logia spoken by Jesus and collected by Thomas. The text is regarded as part of the Gnostic knowledge based on the evolutionary development of consciousness, and raises various questions. Can Gnosticism be “taught” to others, and if so what is the role of the “Savior”? Which path would lead the disciple to enter the stage of living experience? What could the role of Didymos Judas Thomas have been in this process of “Teaching the Unteachable”?
