Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The Secret Gospel gives the first real evidence of the method by which Jesus of Nazareth initiated his disciples into the esoteric practices of his teaching, making this is a very important book for the history of humankind. In 1958, Morton Smith traveled to Jerusalem to do research in the monastery library of Mar Saba, in the Judean Desert. What he found was no routine corroboration of New Testament history, but a precious fragment of a second-century document that would change our understanding of the teaching of Jesus of Nazareth. As exciting as the most suspenseful adventure story, Professor Smith's book is a lively and readable account of the discovery and unraveling of some of Christianity's most intriguing mysteries. "The Secret Gospel invites a wide community of readers to share in the challenge of (Professor Smith's) discovery, and to evaluate for themselves the provocative and fundamental questions it raises." from the Foreword by Elaine Pagels, The Gnostic Gospels
