Lundhaug & Jenott — The Monastic Origins of the Nag Hammadi Codices

This monograph by Hugo Lundhaug (University of Oslo) and Lance Jenott (Washington University in St. Louis) was published by Mohr Siebeck in its Studien und Texte zu Antike und Christentum series, using codicological evidence, paleography, and historical context to argue the Nag Hammadi Codices were produced and read by Pachomian monks. The argument carries the weight of two university-affiliated scholars publishing through a premier academic press in ancient studies.
