Those"NewSayingsOfJesus"

H.M.,MELBOURNE(Vic):Therewerethreewonderful articlesintheMelbourne"Herald"lastDecember,two ofthembyProfessorGillesQuispel,abouttherecently discovereddocumentscontaining"NewSayingsof Jesus."

R.:Theseriesofarticles waspublishedbytheLondon"EveningNews"last September,andbythe Sydney"SundayTelegraph"inNovember.

Thesimplefactsarethat someancientGnosticdocuments,writtenintheCoptic language,werediscovered in1946nearCairo.These documentsdatebacktothe fourthorfifthcenturyA.D.

Thescholarsdealingwith themclaimthattheyare translationsfromanearlier Greekmanuscriptofabout 140A.D.The.ewspapers, inawaytypicalofpopular journalismhaveindulgedin themostsensationalexag-

gerations,falselyasserting thatthedocumentscontain "newsayingsofJesus,"of the"samehistoricalvalueas thoseintheNewTestament,"and"withthesame extraordinarypower."

Everytrickofthetrade isusedtoconditiongullible readersintothinkingthese things,andintoimagining theyhavetheexcitingpriviledgeofsharinginnewand importantknowledge. Wiserreaders,ofcourse, willtakeitallwithmore thanagrainofsalt.

Thesedocumentsarefrom thelibraryofanancient Gnostichereticalcommunity; andtheywillprovideadditionallight,notonChrist andChristianity,butonthe supposedlysecrettradition or"gnosis"ofthesecond centuryhereticswhowere greatlyinfluencedbypreChristianPersianandGreek ideas.

APOCRYPHAL1VRITINGS

Q.:TheAnglicanDiocesan SocietyinMelbournetold metoleaveitalone,asall thesupposedsayingswere spurious.However.itis notassimpleasthat.

R..Manyofthetextsare clearlyGnostichereticalinventions,teachingdoctrines quiteopposedtothoseofthe NewTestament.Others, whichbeararesemblanceto theGospels,areobviously secondary,havingbeenborrowedfromtheGospelsand eitherenlargedorsummarisedinawaycalculated tosuitGnosticdoctrines.

Themostprobableverdict wouldbethatwhateveris trueinthesesupposed"sayings"isnotnew;andwhateverisnewisnottrue.The documentscanonlyberankedwithotherearlyapocryphalgospelsandwritings rejectedbytheChurchfrom theverybeginningasnot inspiredandnotdeserving ofinclusionintheNew Testament.

R.:Youcouldnotexpectasatisfactoryanswerto aquestionlikethatfromamanwhohaddevoted noseriousthoughttothesubject.Theimmediate thingconfrontingsuchamanwouldbetheclaim oftheCatholicChurchtobetheonetrueChurch ofChrist,andworthwhileobjectionstothatclaim basedonscripture,historyandreason,wouldbe beyondthemanwhohasnevergonedeeplyinto thequestion.
