SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Was the 'Gospel of John' written in critical response to the 'Gospel of Thomas', an early collection of Jesus's sayings? Or, was it directed to the Christians among whom Thomas originated? The author challenges these views, arguing that the two gospels were written at about the same time but without knowledge of each other.
