Work[edit]
King's research focuses on previously unknown Christian texts discovered in Egypt in the modern period, especially those of the 'Nag Hammadi library' found in Nag Hammadi in 1945. This research has uncovered historically marginalized or lost perspectives in Christian thought that reveal some of the extant diversity and dynamics of early belief and practice from the first centuries of Christianity. She has in particular explored the roles of women, images of the feminine divine principle, Jesus's sexuality and gender, diversity of attitudes toward persecution and violence and notions of what it means to be human, among other topics.
Jesus' wife[edit]
King found herself at the center of an international controversy after a papyrus which she had introduced at a scholarly conference in Rome in 2012, and thereafter became known as the 'Gospel of Jesus' Wife' – because it appeared to make reference to Jesus as having a wife – was found to be have a false provenance.[1] In 2016, despite acknowledging likely forgery, King stated that there was no reason to retract her earlier published research on the forged document.[2] In 2020, journalist Ariel Sabar published 'Veritas: A Harvard Professor, a Con Man and the Gospel of Jesus's Wife';[3] a Wall Street Journal review of Veritas reported that King had 'embarked on a phased retirement'.[4]
