The Gospel Of St. Bartholomew (Paperback)

The Gospel of St. Bartholomew is a religious text that tells the story of Jesus Christ and his teachings through the perspective of one of his disciples, Bartholomew. The author of the text is unknown, hence the title of ""Anonymous."" The book includes accounts of Jesus' miracles, parables, and teachings, as well as his crucifixion and resurrection. The Gospel of St. Bartholomew also includes additional details about events and characters not found in the canonical gospels, such as the birth and childhood of Mary, the mother of Jesus. This text is considered to be an apocryphal gospel, meaning it is not included in the official canon of the Christian Bible. Despite this, it has been studied and analyzed by scholars and theologians for centuries as a valuable source of information about the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.Mary saith: Thou art the image of Adam: was not he first formed and then Eve? Look upon the sun, that according to the likeness of Adam it is bright. and upon the moon, that because of the transgression of Eve it is full of clay. For God did place Adam in the east and Eve in the west, and appointed the lights that the sun should shine on the earth unto Adam in the east in his fiery chariots, and the moon in the west should give light unto Eve with a countenance like milk. And she defiled the commandment of the Lord.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
