Publisher Description: In 1945 two farmers accidentally unearthed a jar containing twelve leather-bound manuscripts while digging in a field near Nag Hammadi, Egypt. Or was it one farmer, Muhammed al-Samman? Or was it two boys gathering bat guano for fertilizer? And were there twelve or thirteen manuscripts? The story all depends on which "scholar" is telling the story. The story is contained in hundreds of books with different reasons, different translations, and different "scholarly" interpretations of the words. What this small book does for the reader is take away the conflicting stories, and take the non-existent title the "scholars" gave the manuscript (they chose to call it "The Gospel Of Thomas"). This version contains only the poetry of Jesus (Yeshua ben Yosef) as transcribed by Thomas (Didymos Yehudas Tomas). Enjoy the beautiful words and make up your own mind without a "scholar" attempting to influence your understanding. Sit with Thomas at the feet of the teacher.
