About the author
Tau Malachi is the author of The Gnostic Gospel of St. Thomas: Meditations on the Mystical Teachings (Llewellyn Publications, 2004) and St. Mary Magdalene: The Gnostic Tradition of the Holy Bride (Llewellyn Publications). Both books, catalogued under mysticism, approach early Christian and Gnostic material through a contemplative lens, drawing on the Kabbalah and contemporary Christian thought alongside gnostic tradition. The Gospel of St. Thomas title treats that non-canonical gospel verse by verse as a source of meditative teaching, while the Mary Magdalene book explores the scattered gnostic references to her relationship with Jesus and her place among his disciples. Malachi's two listed works form a coherent project: reading gnostic and apocryphal Christian texts as living spiritual material rather than as historical curiosities, addressed to readers with an existing interest in Gnosticism, Kabbalah, and Christian mysticism.
