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 034 of Thomas Gospel.

 

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

 

Gospel of Thomas Saying 34 - The blind cannot lead the blind.
Jesus said, "If a blind man leads a blind man, they will both fall into a pit."

The truth and the divinity of existence has to be understood, known through the intuition of the heart. This truth can only be explained through words alone. But, the words are not be enough to pass on to others the understanding of reality behind them. Unless that light of divine truth is properly seen and understood one will remain blind to it.
Such a person even though well meaning could not navigate this material world of duality to find the path home, nor could he lead others. They all will travel in circles or ”they will both fall into a pit." To lift the veil of duality and blindness one has to attain to the light of the realisation of divine understanding.

ref. Luke 6:39, Matt 15:10-20.
