About the author

Unknown Nag Hammadi

32 books12 followers
The unknown authors of the nag Hammadi library.

Chosen to be named that way because the large group of Unknown authors on Goodreads makes combining editions impossible due to time outs.

At least in this way all Nag Hammadi texts can be found in one place.

Amazing! I read the old testament and it never fully sat well with me. I had so many unanswered questions. This book helped me to answer many of these questions. The stories found in the Nag Hammadi scrolls very much alight with various spiritual and religious ideas around the world which is very interesting, since people couldn't just fly all around the world or share information by computer or phone. My favourite stories were On the Origin of the World and Pistis Sofia.
