Download or read book Nag Hammadi Codices XI XII XIII written by Charles W. Hedrick and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents critical editions of three of the most fragmentary codices in the Nag Hammadi Library. Their nine tractates are presented in an English translation with critically edited transcriptions of Coptic texts, including introductions and notes. A complete set of indices is provided for Coptic and Greek words, proper names, ancient texts and authors, and modern authors. The contents of these three ancient books reflect the rich diversity of the Library as a whole. They include a fragmentary (and apparently non-Christian) revelation descent narrative (Hypsiphrone); a non-Christian Sethian text reflecting heavy platonizing influence (Allogenes); Hellenistic Greek wisdom literature (Sentence of Sextus); a non-christian Sethian text, secondarily Christianized (Trimorphic Protennoia); Valentinian Gnosticism (A Valentinian Exposition); a Christian-Gnostic tractate with Valentinian affinities (The Interpretation of Knowledge). A Christian-Gnostic (perhaps Valentinian) homily on the gospel (the Gospel of Truth); the first page of On the Origin of the World (completely preserved in NHC II) and an identified fragmentary tractate with ethical content. There are also five Valentinian liturgical supplements appended to Allogenes. The publication of these religio-philosophical materials from Nag Hammadi provides the scholar and interested reader with critical editions of texts that help to fill in background and context of gnostic origins, and that shed light on the interaction among early Christianity and gnostic movements in antiquity.

Download or read book Nag Hammadi Codices III 3 4 and V 1 with Papyrus Berolinensis 8502 3 and Oxyrhynchus Papyrus 1081 Eugnostos and the Sophia of Jesus Christ written by Parrott and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eugnostos and The Sophia of Jesus Christ (SJC) are two closely related tractates from the Nag Hammadi Coptic Gnostic Library and Papyrus Berolinensis 8502 (only SJC). Here they are presented parallel with each other because they are literarily related, i.e. most of Eugnostos is also found in SJC. Eugnostos is printed in its two Coptic copies (too close to be versions), plus the fragmentary remains of a Greek copy (all with translations). This the first publication of the edited text of Eugnostos from Nag Hammadi Codex V and the first time that all these texts have been presented in one volume. Eugnostos is a non-Christian speculative cosmogony that begins with the primal invisible One, moves on to the structuring of the invisible and visible aeons and concludes at the point where the creation of this world would occur. SJC is a revelation discourse of Christ with his disciples which makes use of the bulk of Eugnostos, and adds new emphases: e.g. the special role of Christ as revealer and savior, the imprisonment of the divine element in flesh, opposition in sexual intercourse, and the commissioning of the disciples. While Eugnostos lacks essential elements of the gnostic world-view, SJC is unquestionably gnostic. If one assumes the priority of Eugnostos, these tractates provide the clearest textual evidence available of a non-gnostic and non-Christian speculative system being transformed into a system that is both gnostic and Christian. An introduction, textual notes and indices are included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Coptic Gnostic Library continues where the Dead Sea Scrolls left off. Our main sources of information for the Gnostic religion are the so-called Nag Hammadi codices, written in Coptic. These were unearthed in 1945 near the town of Nag Hammadi in Upper Egypt. The texts literally begin where the Dead Sea Scrolls end. Their discovery is considered equally significant as the Dead Sea Scrolls themselves, bringing to light a long-hidden wealth of information and insights into early Judaism and the roots of Christianity. Furthermore, these writings clearly show that the Gnostic religion was not only a force that interacted with early Christianity and Judaism in their formative periods, but also a significant religious movement in its own right. The Coptic Gnostic Library contains all the texts of the Nag Hammadi codices, both in the original Coptic and in translation. Each text has its own introduction, and full indexes are provided. The Coptic Gnostic Library is the starting point for all research into ancient Gnosticism. It is the result of decades of dedicated research by the most distinguished international scholars in this field. The Coptic Gnostic Library is the only authoritative edition of many of the Coptic writings of the Gnostics from the first centuries AD. It was originally published by Brill in fourteen hardback volumes as part of the Nag Hammadi (and Manichaean) Studies series between 1975 and 1995, under the general editorship of James M. Robinson. Now, for the first time, it is available in paperback, at a fraction of the price of the original hardback editions. - Photomechanical paperback reprint of the original 14 hardback volumes - Complete and unabridged: 5 volumes, totaling approximately 5.000 pages - Facing Coptic texts and English translations, Introductions, Notes, and Indexes - Only available as a set

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2023 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: In my essay is an attempt to have an in depth analysis of correlation between codices IX and X with the New Testament. According to James Robinson in his book "The Coptic Gnostic Library Volume V", Codices IX and X are part of a composition of twelve papyrus codices, plus one treatise from a thirteenth, discovered in December of 1945, about 10 km. northeast of Nag Hammadi, in a jar buried at the base of the Gebel et-Tarif near the village of Hamra Dom in Upper Egypt. Codex IX on one hand has been numbered VIII in 1949 by J. Doresse and T. Mina, in 1950 number X by H. C. Puech, in 1958 numbered IV by S. Giversen and by B.van Regemorter in 1960, in 1958 number V by J. Doresse , and in 1962 numbered IX by M. Krause, this numbering by Krause of the Nag Hammadi codices is accepted as the official numbering and is used by the Coptic Museum and in the Facsimile Edition, and is therefore adopted in this edition. Codex IX was found with its leather cover intact and photographs of the cover are shown in the Facsimile Edition, plates 1 to 4. A full specification of the cover, which was made of sheepskin and goatskin, is given by J. M. Robinson in his foreword to the Facsimile Edition. Robinson has demonstrated, in a thorough analysis of all of the leather covers of the Nag Hammadi Library in existence, that Codex IX, typologically is in a the same class with Codices VI and X, and II, to a lesser extent. The codex is very poorly kept. Substantial portions of it are not there altogether or kept only in fragments. As is the case with the other codices in the library with the exception of Codex I, the study of the extant material has shown that the codex was composed of a single quire. From pp 27 to 48, this inside portion of the codex is comparatively well kept. The inside fragment was reinstated to its archetype sheet in the final conservation of Codex IX in 1974; the Facsimile Edition, p 41. It is obvious that fragments cannot be placed as in a jig-saw puzzle since so much of the codex is lost and damaged as such a certain criteria has been prepared for placement of fragments and for establishing the sequence of pages.
