Abstract
Comment by JN Birdsall, on the text of the New Testament and the legitimacy of other biblical texts, such as the Gnostic Nag-Hammadi codices and the Gospel of Thomas. Birdsall also questions claims made by Morton Smith of a 'Secret Gospel of Mark' made available in 1973. Birdsall also expounds the variant forms for 'hyssop' in John 19.29 rationalising that we must resort to its symbolic allusions.
