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 110 of Thomas Gospel.

 

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

 

Gospel of Thomas Saying 110 - The rich should renounce.
Jesus said, "Whoever finds the world and becomes rich, let him renounce the world."

Jesus said, "Whoever finds the world and becomes rich, let him renounce the world."
There is material wealth and there is the wealth of eternal knowledge.
There is the material world and there is the eternal existence of the divine.
Whoever “finds the world” means whoever comes to know or realise the difference in the worlds becomes rich in the truth because he can discern the difference.
Such a knower of divine truth will surrender “renounce” the material world to seek the higher truth of the divine.
