Description

The Infancy Gospel of Thomas contains stories of Jesus not found in the Bible. Discover the history of this ancient text. Most scholars date the Infancy Gospel of Thomas to the second century, offering a glimpse into the childhood of Jesus between the ages of five and twelve. Unlike the canonical texts, this narrative depicts the young Jesus performing miracles like bringing clay sparrows to life, while also recounting darker episodes, such as cursing a child or causing the death of a boy who bumped into him. While early church writers rejected these accounts, the text survived in thirteen languages and remained a prominent part of early Christianity for over 1,500 years. By analyzing these lost gospels, we can better understand the diverse landscape of Bible history and the evolving traditions surrounding the life of the young Jesus.
