The Gospel According To Jesus by Stephen A. Mitchell
A New Translation and Guide to His Essential Teachings for Believers and Unbelievers
A modern translation and commentary that sifts early sources to distinguish the historical teacher’s voice from later church doctrine, presenting a path centered on compassion, forgiveness, nonattachment, and the Kingdom found within. Emphasizing practice over belief, it reads the parables and sayings as practical wisdom, challenges theological accretions—especially Pauline and Johannine—and draws illuminating parallels with traditions like Taoism and Zen.
