Gospel of Mary

The Gospel of Mary is a collection of writings attributed to Jesus as told through and for Mary of Magdala. As with most Gospels, it is unlikely she wrote it herself; it is more likely that followers of her Church wrote it.

Along with the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Judas, the Gospel of Mary is part of the Gnostic tradition, which holds that Jesus passed along secret traditions to his disciples for finding Union with God.

Mary as Church Leader
Karen King, in her work on the Nag Hammadi library‎‎, writes of Mary:

Existent text
The Gospel of Mary is a fragmented text. Chapters 1-3 and 11-14 have been lost, and some of the other pages, while having been expertly restored, have missing details.
