Summary

It is time for a new New Testament. In February of 2012, a council of scholars and spiritual leaders, convened by religion scholar Hal Taussig, came together to discuss, debate, and reconsider which books belong in the New Testament. They talked about dozens of newly found texts, the lessons therein, and how they inform the previously bound books. Reading the existing New Testament alongside these new textsThe Gospel of Luke with The Gospel of Mary, Paul's letters with The Letter of Peter to Philip, The Revelation to John with The Secret Revelation to Johnoffers the exciting possibility of understanding both, the new and the old, better.
