The Gospel of Thomas (also known as the Coptic Gospel of Thomas) is extra to the canonical gospels in the New Testament of the bible. It was discovered near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in December 1945 among a group of books known as the Nag Hammadi library. Scholars speculate that the works were buried and hidden after the declaration of a strict canon of Christian scripture, where any works that were not selected for inclusion in the new testament were ordered to be destroyed. Scholars have proposed dates of composition as early as 60 AD and as late as 250 AD as a collection of sayings of Jesus.

Our Commentary on Verse 029 of Thomas Gospel.

These are the secret sayings which the living Jesus spoke and which Didymos Judas Thomas wrote down.

Gospel of Thomas saying 29 - Reality of spirit unreality of body.
Jesus said, "If the flesh came into being because of spirit, it is a wonder. But if spirit came into being because of the body, it is a wonder of wonders. Indeed, I am amazed at how this great wealth has made its home in this poverty."

"If the flesh came into being because of spirit, it is a wonder”
To those that would argue that our bodies are the result of chance or coincidence in nature, Jesus would say that is a wonder.
Jesus would answer that consciousness and spirituality is the true existence. And Yes, indeed, it takes time to believe, but it is a wonder that this physical form is a projection of that eternal spirit.

”But if spirit came into being because of the body, it is a wonder of wonders
But, we also have the conscious ability to ‘see’ and know of ourselves, that is, self-awareness. To imagine that the physical material form of our bodies came into being, and our conscious spirit was also produced from the same source as this material body would be too much of a wonder “wonder of wonders”

"I am amazed at how this great wealth has made its home in this poverty”
The material of our form comes from what we eat from the earth and we eventualy return as earth, literally. Our forms are devoid of any special substance that separates it from even a tree. This is the ”poverty”   of transient worldly material.
”This great wealth”   Jesus refers to is the consciousness that recognises itself in others. This consciousness recognises the same true love as being present in others. The insight that others have the same feelings as us, our caring of how we affect future generations, our ability for self-sacrifice for the benefit of others. Our intuition that there is more to our existence than just ‘This’, and much more could be brought to mind through our Conscious imagination.
This consciousness is the great wealth of existence itself, without it you could say that nothing exists, because no one would 'know' about it. To think that this conscious spirit is seperate within each of us, and is materialy reproduced by every human form that is produced would be just too amazing, Surely.
