Gnostic text Second Treatise of the Great Seth resurfaces
Original: Second Treatise of the Great Seth They thought that I suffered, but I did not suffer. 📜 # religion # theology
The Second Treatise of the Great Seth, a Gnostic text found in the Nag Hammadi library, is being quoted again in religion and theology discussions. The line 'They thought that I suffered, but I did not suffer' reflects its docetic teaching that Jesus did not truly suffer on the cross, a striking contrast to mainstream Christian doctrine.
Why now: The text's startling claim that Christ's crucifixion suffering was an illusion challenges conventional Christian belief, drawing renewed interest.
