We have found #Marcion, the original gospel on which Mark based his story - or rather, which triggered Mark to invent his Messiah and the resurrection, in order to counter it
It is #POxy5575, Papyrus Oxyrhynchus 5575, and it is based on the #GospelOfThomas as I have been saying for years now
It contains Logion 27 and 36, both considerably altered - yet with a very solid reason regarding 27, which contains Coptic wordplay that simply can not cross any language barrier

Unsure whether everyone can access that at this moment, it is a new Academia.edu feature still in Beta - please inform me when it fails
This concerns logion 78, the reed moved by the wind (alone)

I've just published my last distraction before going back to the Commentary - and it took a whole lot longer than expected

Wrapping up on the comparison for the wineskin and the patch: Thomas, *Ev and the Synoptics
I tried to be concise, but got distracted as usual and ended up with 60 pages
I'd be a really bad Thomas!
