About this app

Discover the ancient secrets of the Gnostic texts with the Nag Hammadi Library app, now accessible on your Android device. Immerse yourself in the rich history of the twelve leather-bound papyrus codices, discovered in 1945 near the Upper Egyptian town of Nag Hammadi.

Featuring fifty-two primarily Gnostic treatises, as well as three works belonging to the Corpus Hermeticum and a partial translation of Plato's Republic, these manuscripts provide an unparalleled look into the spiritual beliefs of early Christianity. Written in Coptic language, the original codices are housed in the prestigious Coptic Museum in Cairo, Egypt.

With our app, you can easily access these invaluable manuscripts for study and research purposes, bringing the historical significance of the Nag Hammadi library to the palm of your hand.

Ratings and reviews

I installed this app with high hopes, but was disappointed. Not only is the format of the documents not ideal, compared to other translations (i.e. no chapter or verse for easy referencing), but the Gospel of Mary is completely missing. I wanted an app like this to be able to read the nag hammadi codex wherever I happened to be and one of the most well-known gospels is missing. 3 stars.

All the Gnostic and related texts in one easy to use app. When carrying a library or even a single volume around is inconvenient, this app saves the day. Also, the ads are absolutely NOT intrusive. Well done, and thanks to the Developer.

I have been using this app for at least a year now and absolutely love It. I read it to my 5 and 7 year old daughters every night. but all of a sudden it doesnt work! what's going on?? my 7 year old is devastated beyond belief! I hope you are just working on it and it's not gone forever!! thank you for your response! I'm so glad to hear you're working on a new version and its NOT gone forever! thank you for all that you do! :)
