The Gnostic gospels and the Book of Enoch, complete and offline: 21 lost texts, buried 1,600 years, now in your pocket.
December 1945, Nag Hammadi, Egypt. A farmer digging at the base of a cliff struck a sealed clay jar holding thirteen leather-bound books: gospels left out of the Bible and condemned as heresy, hidden away and lost for sixteen centuries. The Gnostic Library puts them on your phone: complete, honest, and always at hand.

✦ READ THEM LIKE A BOOK
Every passage opens like a printed page: a headline, a drop capital, and numbering you can cite (Saying 77, BG 8,15). Parchment by day, candlelight by night, adjustable type, search across every text.
✦ LISTEN LIKE AN AUDIOBOOK
With All Access the library reads itself to you. Tap Listen and it turns the page and reads on to the end of the book, in any voice on your phone. Four speeds, a sleep timer, nothing sent online.
✦ HONESTY ON EVERY PAGE
Every text names its manuscript and its translator. Where the papyrus is damaged, the gap is shown as a gap, marked with an asterisk. No invented scripture, ever.
✦ ASK THE LIBRARY
Ask in your own words, "what is the kingdom?" or "who is the demiurge?", and get the texts' own words back: verbatim passages with citations, found entirely on your device. Nothing generated, nothing sent online.
✦ IN PLAIN WORDS
Under any passage, a plain-English note: what it meant in its world. Ancient terms (Pleroma, archon, gnosis) explained in a tap. Clearly labeled commentary, never passed off as scripture.
✦ A PATH THROUGH THE LIBRARY
Not sure where to begin? Answer a question or two and the library becomes a reading path, one part a day: Jesus in his own words, Mary Magdalene and the sacred feminine, the secret teachings of how everything began, or the Book of Enoch.
✦ A QUIET DAILY PRACTICE
One passage each day at the hour you choose. The notification carries the actual words, never "come back!" bait. With All Access, one more each evening, read aloud before sleep, and the day's reading on your home screen as a widget. Highlights, notes and pins on their own Notes tab.
✦ PASS IT ON
Share any passage as a picture or a tall Story picture, with links to the passage and the app. Read with a friend: send your path, and you both read the same part each day.
✦ 100% OFFLINE. 100% PRIVATE.
The whole library is stored on your device; airplane mode is enough. No ads. No account. No tracking. Data safety: nothing collected, nothing shared.
✦ TRY IT ALL, THEN CHOOSE
Free forever: the Gospel of Mary and Thunder, Perfect Mind, complete, to read, search, mark and share. Fourteen open days show you everything: no card, no tricks. Then keep it your way: monthly, yearly, or once for good, with Listen, the plain-words notes in full, the home-screen widget and daily readings from the books you choose. Every future text is included.
✦ WHO THIS IS FOR
For readers of the gnostic gospels and the Nag Hammadi library. For collectors of the apocrypha and the lost books of the Bible. For students of gnosticism, the demiurge, Sophia, and early Christian history. For anyone who ever felt that part of the story was missing.
Read them yourself. Decide for yourself.
