The early texts of Thomas, Mary Magdalene, and Philip give us a view different than that of the synoptic Gospels, one that is luminous with insight. Dynamic translation with commentary helps the student enter a new world of early perennial wisdom. Translated by Lynn C Bauman, Ph.D., with commentary by Lynn C. Bauman, Ph.D., the Rev Ward J Bauman, and the Rev Cynthia Bourgeault, Ph.D.
