Prorok není vítaný ve své domovině: Tomášovo evangelium jako svědek prastaré předevangelijní tradice

Abstract

The similarity of materials recorded in Mk 6:6–6a and GTh 31 speaking of the rejection of the prophet among people who are close to him reveals in dialogue with synoptic parallels new findings. Currently, the close connection between Thomas’ logion and Luke’s version leads some researchers to conclusions about the obvious literary dependence of Thomas’ gospel on the version according to Luke. In this paper, we offer an alternative view that convincingly demonstrates through the analysis of the canonical parallels and the Greek fragment of Thomas’ logion no. 31 that the supposed Lukianisms are more likely to be original references to an ancient, pre-Markan literary source. Thanks to redactional layers apparent in the versions of Mark and Matthew, independent testimonies can be seen in the Gospels of Luke and Thomas, which lead us up to the old literary roots of the written Gospels.
