Summary: | Up till now the Egyptian government has not succeeded in arranging the purchase of the manuscripts forming the library of a Gnostic community living in the fourth century a.d. near the old site of Khenoboskion in Upper Egypt. But thanks to some preliminary studies we know the titles of the works copied in those manuscripts. When once these most important texts have been published we shall know much more about what the Egyptian Gnostics thought and taught in the fourth century in Upper Egypt. |
