Tajemna Ewangelia Marka z listu Klemensa z Aleksandrii do Teodora

Abstract

This article contains introduction, translation of the letter into Polish and notes. The letter with fragments from the Secret Gospel of Mark stems most probably from Clement of Alexandria. These fragments imitate the style of Mark and they were added to the Gospel in early II century; they borrow also from Luke. Depending heavily from many other texts of Mark (in at least 15 points, including 6 verbatim quotations), seemingly in D form (Mk 1.41; 8.22), these additions certainly did not belong to an earlier form of the Gospel. The main story is derived from an early tradition parallel to Jn 11.1-44, but its precise original content cannot be determined because of the influence of such quasi-Marcan redaction.
