“Thomas’s rejection of “the Jews” (GosThom 43) and the Hebrew Bible (GosThom 52), and the text’s disparaging views of Old Testament figures (GosThom 85), reveal a cool, distanced attitude toward what the author considers an irrelevant institution.”
Jesus is passionate about Judaism, saying he wouldn’t change anything about it, yet in the GOT Jews are disparaged. This is a big problem, proving these are not words of Jesus, but the ideas of later Christian sects.
