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 095 of Thomas Gospel.
These are the secret sayings which the living Jesus spoke and which Didymos Judas Thomas wrote down.
Gospel of Thomas Saying 095 - We should not lend at interest.
Jesus said, "If you have money, do not lend it at interest, but give it to one from whom you will not get it back."
Jesus said, "If you have money, do not lend it at interest,”
Our reality is that we are experiencing a material life.
No material has true existence because it is decaying and will disperse.
There is no sense in seeking to accumulate more material in this life, as said, it is unreal and will come to an end.
“but give it to one from whom you will not get it back."
If we have money or any material greater than our needs better to let others have the use.
Why would we need surplus material replaced?
Our goal is to surrender desire to return to our true home, as unity with the Absolute or God. That which timelessly exists.
