Which is like the DVD extras, sort of the behind the scenes vlog.

Yeah, it is.

The-

Extended edition

... the Gnostic Gospels are a fascinating, uh, corpus of texts, which we've only very recently, in the grand scheme of things, been able to rediscover and read for ourselves. We knew of the existence of a bunch of gospels that weren't in the New Testament, um, because early church fathers were writing about them. Um, we knew about the existence of a Gospel of Judas, a Gospel of Thomas. Fascinating, you know? But we didn't have the texts until in 1945, uh, some guy was digging in the desert and accidentally crashes into this big jar. At least this is one of the... Like, the stories are disputed. Um, and just, like, opens this jar. At first doesn't wanna open it 'cause he's scared there's, like, a demon in it. Uh, but turns out it's got a bunch of ancient manuscripts, which he takes home and keeps by the fire and is-

Where is it?

In Nag Hammadi, near Nag Hammadi in Egypt. So Egypt is, has the perfect climate for the preservation of, of papyrus. So it seem- We, we're not entirely sure, but it seems that, like, these texts were buried in this cave in the desert, and that could be, uh, because Athanasius comes up with the Christian canonical New Testaments, says, "These are the four gospels. All of the other ones, you know, we're not, we're not, we're not gonna read. They're not part of our tradition." So they end up getting sort of destroyed. So they get, they get sort of buried in, in the ground to either protect them, 'cause they don't wanna be destroyed, or just to bury them to sort of get rid of them. Um, it's also possible that it was a, a burial site. Some people have suggested that, like, it's, it was, uh, some significant figure with a lot of, you know, a lot of texts to his name. When he was buried-

Mm

... he was buried with these texts.

Mm.

And so that's why some people think that the story of the discovery isn't true, 'cause it was actually a grave robbing. Some people have thought maybe-

Wow

... it was just a simple grave robbing, but the person who then discovers these texts doesn't wanna admit that he's-

Have-

... robbing a grave and-

Have these been carbon dated? Have they been verified, authenticated?

Yeah. So there's been, there's been a lot of work done on this. Um, we... You can, you can date the actual papyrus, but you can also... I mean, the extraordinary thing about these gospels is... So I think, so, uh, the Gospel of Judas, for example, which is not found in that collection, it's not found in the Nag Hammadi collections. It's, it's found at a, at a later point. And fascinatingly, when people began to realize what it is, there's this huge scramble, 'cause it's worth a lot of money, right? And people are, like, trying to smuggle it. People are trying to... Uh, 'cause, 'cause you can't just sort of take really expensive ancient manuscripts across the border. You know, countries want to keep them for themselves. They want them for their museums, they want them for their researchers. Uh, but the people who find them want to sell them. So this Gospel of Judas is discovered, and it finds its way all over the place. It
