This commentary is opened by a study offering information about all
aspects of the Gospel of Thomas, especially about its relation to
other texts of early Christian literature, including the canonical
Gospels. The successive commentary is based upon the Coptic version
and discusses also all fragments of the original Greek text. The
volume is divided into two parts: The first discusses the function
of each logion (saying) within the frame of piety and theology of
the Thomasine group, for which the Gospel is composed; The second
part discusses its literary shape and its history, including its
relation to the historical Jesus. The result is a portrait of the
Gospel as a radical interpretation of Jesus' heritage, still
preserving some forgotten features of his teaching.
