Reviews

'... an extremely important book, one that promises to bring about renewed and increased interest in a text that has often seemed at best confusing and at worst incomprehensible [...]. As a result of Roberge's book being published in this English edition, English-speaking scholars who work on a range of subjects, including not only Nag Hammadi texts and Gnosticism but also early Christianity in general, Mandaeism, and Manichaeism, will benefit from improved access to this fascinating ancient work.' James F. McGrath, RBL 2012 'Frucht Jahrzehntelanger Beschaftigung des Autors mit dem Text. [...] Roberge [ist] bestrebt die Ergebungsresultate der Arbeit seiner Fachkollegen auszuwerten, um seinen Lesern Ergebnisse bieten zu konnen, die einen aktuellen Stand der Forschung reflektieren. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Sorgfalt, mit der dieses Buch erarbeitet wurde. Wer das Koptisch nicht machtig ist, kann sich nun den Blick in die franzosische Edition ersparen. Fur alle anderen stellt die englische Neuauflage aber eine unverzichtbare Erganzung dar.' Bernd Witte, Journal of Coptic Studies 15 (2013)
