Edición de la obra Other Gospels

"Bart Ehrman, the New York Times bestselling author of Misquoting Jesus and recognized authority on the early Christian Church, and Zlatko Pleše, a foremost authority on Christian Gnosticism, here offer a valuable compilation of more than forty ancient gospel texts and textual fragments that do not appear in the New Testament. This comprehensive collection contains Gospels describing Jesus's infancy, ministry, Passion, and resurrection, and includes the controversial manuscript discoveries of modern times, such as the Gospel of Thomas and the most recent Gospel to discovered, the Gospel of Judas Iscariot. Each translation begins with a thoughtful examination of important historical, literary, and textual issues in order to place the Gospel in its proper context. This volume is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in early Christianity and the deeper meanings of these apocryphal Gospels." -- Back cover.
