The Mandaeans : Ancient Texts and Modern People EPUB
by Jorunn Jacobsen Buckley
Part of the An American Academy of Religion Book series
EPUB
Description
The Mandaeans are a Gnostic sect that arose in the middle east around the same time as Christianity.
What little study of the religion there has been has focused on the ancient Mandaeans and their relation to early Christianity.
Buckley examines the lives and religion of contemporary Mandaeans, who live mainly in Iran and Iraq but also in New York and San Diego.
She provides a comprehensive introduction to the religion and shows how its ancient texts inform the living religion, and vice versa.
