  1. 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)

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

  5. 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!
