Apocalypse of James

The Apocalypse of James is being brought to my attention and it is a Coptic text that was found in Egypt. I have not had time to read both texts myself yet. However, here are a couple of links with reviews of the texts carried out by scholars for your consideration. These few words are from the second Apocalypse of James.



I am the first son who was begotten. -
He will destroy the dominion of them all. -
I am the beloved.
I am the righteous one.
I am the son of the Father.
I speak even as I heard.
I command even as I received the order.
I show you even as I have found.
