New Fragments of the Gospel of Judas
Marvin Meyer has put new fragments on line available here. Here is what he said back in November about them:
We have been awaiting, with some anticipation, the appearance of the recovered fragments of Codex Tchacos, and it seems that now, following the legal proceedings that have focused upon the papyrus fragments, that time has come. On behalf of Gregor Wurst, myself, and, I am sure, all who are interested in the Gospel of Judas and the other texts in Codex Tchacos, I would like to acknowledge and thank Ms. Frieda Tchacos-Nussberger for her commitment to making photographs of the fragments available and concluding the process of translating and studying the texts within the codex. The process of dealing with the fragments, and of addressing the legal issues surrounding the fragments, has been difficult and costly for Frieda, and we are grateful that we have come to this point of being able to examine the important evidence provided by the Tchacos fragments.
