James Bruce, the traveller in Abyssinia, bought a manuscript in Medinet Habu in 1769. This edition and translation, by the distinguished Copticist Carl Schmidt, is still the only edition of the whole text, which he restored from the random order into which the leaves had been bound. The text consists of the two Books of Jeu, as mentioned in the Gnostic text Pistis Sophia, and another unnamed Coptic Gnostic work. The mystic diagrams of the text are reproduced, in Greek lettering, in the translation.

A Biblical Perspective

A popularly-written study of the biblical roots of the Eastern Orthodox Church’s mystical understanding of the knowledge of God. This unique study brings together the best of contemporary exegesis with the tradition of Eastern Christianity and illustrates the biblical roots of the Eastern Church's understanding of grace as the energy of God. The book presents, in lay terms, the shape for an Orthodox biblical theology for the 21st century and will be of interest to all Christians for whom the Bible is divine revelation and for whom tradition continues to be creative.
