- 2007 December 2, April D. DeConick, “What the Gospel of Judas really says”, in The New York Times[1], →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 23 November 2011, Essay[2]:
- Unfortunately, after re-translating the society's transcription of the Coptic text, I have found that the actual meaning is vastly different.
