Gospel of Thomas Verse 85-91

85)  Jesus said, “Adam came into being from a great power and a
great wealth, but he did not become worthy of you. For had he
been worthy, [he would] not [have experienced] death.”
 
86)  Jesus said, “[The foxes have their holes] and the birds have
[their] nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head
and rest.”
 
87)  Jesus said, “Wretched is the body that is dependant upon a
body, and wretched is the soul that is dependent on these two.”
 
88)  Jesus said, “The angels and the prophets will come to you
and give you those things you (already) have. And you too, give
them those things which you have, and say to yourselves, ‘When
will they come and take what is theirs?'”
 
89)  Jesus said, “Why do you wash the outside of the cup? Do you
not realize that he who made he inside is the same one who made
the outside?”
 
90)  Jesus said, “Come unto me, for My yoke is easy and My
lordship is mild, and you will find repose for yourselves.”
 
91)  They said to Him, “Tell us who You are so that we may
believe in You.”
     He said to them, “You read the face of the sky and of the
earth, but you have not recognized the one who is before you, and
you do not know how to read this moment.”
