This book does not stand alone. It is part of the work of the True Testament Assembly. If you read it and find yourself wanting to go deeper, the eleven books it draws on are where that reading lives.
The True Testament
The True Testament is the Marcionite canon in English: the Evangelion and the ten letters of Paul known together as the Apostolikon. These eleven books are the earliest closed Christian canon the record shows, published before the Hebrew Bible was bound to the church’s scriptures.
No Marcionite manuscript survives. The True Testament rebuilds the text from the ancient witnesses who quoted it, most of them hostile, and says so. When this book quotes Paul or the Evangelion, it quotes that text.
The library also holds the Assembly’s other books, beginning with Beyond the Rupture and Key Words of Our Faith, and the studies that argue the textual case passage by passage.
The eleven books of the True Testament are available to read in full at truetestament.org. They are: the Evangelion, Galatians, 1 and 2 Corinthians, Romans, 1 and 2 Thessalonians, Laodiceans (the letter you may know as Ephesians), Colossians, Philippians, and Philemon.
