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 042 of Thomas Gospel.
These are the secret sayings which the living Jesus spoke and which Didymos Judas Thomas wrote down.
Gospel of Thomas Saying 42 - We should be passers by.
Jesus said, "Become passers-by."
Those to whom Jesus spoke were his followers. Those who follow Jesus are seeking higher divine truth.
Jesus taught that the divine cannot be found in this material realm.
A true seeker after God will not be distracted by events in this world..Those desiring to find their way back to unity with God desire to “pass this world by”. Or "Become passers-by”
