an alternate portrait of Jesus, a portrait that would disappear as the Roman Church and its theology ascended to prominence. In this video, I'm reading from 'The Gospel of Thomas: The Hidden Sayings of Jesus,' translated by Marvin Meyer, HarperCollins, 1992 (which is now out of print). But the identical text can now be had through a different publisher, published in 2004. Here's the Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/Gospel-Thomas-Hidden-Sayings-Jesus/dp/006065581X/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=the+gospel+of+thomas&qid=1633703723&s=books&sr=1-8
