Dr. David Litwa on The Gnostic Gospel of Thomas

Ready to experience the Gospel of Thomas in its original intention? You’ll get the latest and often startling research on this text as Dr. David Litwa joins me to discuss his new book, The Gnostic Thomas: An Introduction to the Gospel of Thomas. Sorry, academia, but the Gospel of Thomas is truly a Gnostic expression. This sophisticated spiritual text emphasizes salvation through gnosis, opposition to archons, the inner light, rejection of the flesh, rejection of the world, and a seeker’s outlook. We’ll also delve deeper to uncover its true origins, attitude towards women, and how it interacts with the synoptic texts.
