The Gnostic Bible

Book •
The Gnostic Bible, edited and translated by scholars including Willis Barnstone and Marvin Meyer, compiles essential Gnostic texts—such as the Secret Gospel of John and other Nag Hammadi writings—into a single volume for study.

It provides translations alongside commentary to contextualize these non-canonical scriptures within early Christian and Gnostic movements.

The anthology sheds light on alternative Christianologies, cosmologies, and spiritual practices that were marginalized by orthodox Christianity.

By bringing these texts to modern readers, the book invites reconsideration of Christian origins and the diversity of early Christian thought.

It is widely used by scholars and spiritual seekers exploring Gnostic perspectives on salvation, knowledge, and the divine.
