	Sophia of Jesus Christ
		The Sophia of Jesus Christ is clearly dependent on Eugnostos the Blessed, both of which were unearthed at Nag Hammadi (in two differing copies for each).
		Because of the presence of Seth (although unnamed in the tractate), Eugnostos must be thought of as Sethian, in some sense.
		A very early date is suggested by the fact that Stoics, Epicureans and astrologers are called "all the philosophers." That characterization would have been appropriate in the first century B.C.E., but not later.

		Although the Apostle’s Epistles (!) have been included in orthodox canon for centuries, the first individual to have considered these epistles as actual CANON, or scripture, might have been a sort of para-gnostic named Marcion.
		The epistles survived largely because they existed in printed form and could be collected and saved, whereas many blog posts quickly become lost in the electronic void.
		Another difference is, of course, that the Pauline Epistles were divinely inspired, and served to elaborate upon a burgeoning theology and Christology while such concept were completely new, whereas thus far most blog posts have far less of a specific ecclesiastic mission.

	Margaret Barker - The Secret Tradition
		The curious references in the epistles to the heavenly powers and cosmic struggles, to mysteries, to the transformation of the believer into a more glorious body, and so forth, give good grounds for suspecting that what the later writers described as secret knowledge taught by Jesus may well have been exactly that.
		The Epistle of the Apostles is also thought to be a mid-second century composition, and its significance lies chiefly in the fact that it has the form of a special revelation of the risen L
		The most remarkable feature of the Epistle of the Apostles, apart from its sober ordinariness in comparison with other post-resurrection revelations, is its clear demonstration of the earliest Christian belief that Jesus had been the manifestation of yhwh as Gabriel.

		The library of Nah-Hammadi surrendered a Sethian text, entitled the Epistle of Eugnoste, in which are clearly expressed the ideas that the Joshua/Jesus sects of the Second and Third Centuries would not have any scruples about exploiting and recuperating in the name of their mythic heroes.
		The Epistle of Eugnoste was thus cut out and recomposed on the model of a dialogue between Jesus and his disciples, so as to adopt the title Sophia of Jesus.
		The Epistle to the Hebrews, attributed to Saul/Paul by the Catholics, to Barnabas by Tertuillien and to Apollos by Luther, linked the priesthood of the Messiah Joshua-Jesus to the priesthood of Melchizedek.

		Another argument for the early camp is that there is overlap between Paul's epistles and Thomas.
		The authentic corpus of Paul's epistles, which include Corintians, Galatians, and Phillippians are universally regarded by secular biblical scholars as predating the canonical Gospels of Mark, Mathew, Luke, and John.
		MAny argue that there are overlaps between teachings found in Paul and in Thomas that are not found in the canonical Gospels, (nor independently attested by them), and that Thomas therefore may have drawn on a common sayings pool that was drawn upon both by the canonical gospels and by Thomas.

		In that sense it’s actually more like the Epistle to the Romans than it is like one of the gospels because the Epistle to the Romans is really a theological reflection on the meaning of the death and resurrection of Jesus.
		We have, for example, two copies of a document here called Eugnostos: Eugnostos is a Greek name, but if you translate it it means “the one who knows well” which might be just a typical name for a Gnostic.
		That is to say, we have evidence here, and I think a vast majority of scholars who have studied the point agree, that this non-Christian, Gnostic treatise has been taken over to be christianised by the superficial device of having Jesus reveal it to his disciples.

	How Jesus Got A Life -- The Probing Mind
		A careful reading of the Pauline epistles and the gospels (supplemented by modern documentary discoveries) shows that Christianity began as a mystery cult, replete with initiations, secrets, and multiple levels of indoctrination.

		The non-Christian philosophic treatise Eugnostos the Blessed is cut up somewhat arbitrarily into separate speeches, which are then put on Jesus' tongue, in answer to questions (which sometimes do not quite fit the answers) that the disciples address to him during a resurrection appearance.
