The Marcionite Research Library (original) (raw)
Welcome to the Marcionite Research Library; a virtual library with numerous resources relating to the study of Marcion of Sinope, his teachings, his bible and his followers. Here you will find a wide range of articles and resources on these subjects, and links to relevant articles and books elsewhere on the internet.
The site was originally set up by Daniel Mahar; it was called "The Center For Marcionite Research: The Library" and was hosted on GeoCities. It was renamed and transferred here in 2009 when GeoCities closed and Daniel Mahar gave me permission to reproduce, maintain and develop the site. I am extremely grateful to Daniel for creating such a valuable site, and granting me permission to reproduce so much of his work. I am also extremely grateful to all the other authors who have given me permission to reproduce their work.
The Marcionite Research Library has recently been reorganised, and is now divided into sections by subject and author. My own articles have been moved to a separate site: www.Original-Bible.com
