Infancy Gospel Of Thomas Infancy Gospel of Thomas There are many similarities and differences between the Infancy Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Mark. The Infancy Gospel depicts Jesus in his younger years, and is used to fill the void between his birth, and his travels to Jerusalem. The Gospel of Mark is from when Jesus was much older, and tells the story of his journey to spread the word of God. One similarity between the two texts is the miracles that Jesus performs. In the Gospel of Mark, many people asked to be healed by Jesus, for he had the power to do so. One example is in verse 10, where Jesus helps a blind man to see. “In response, Jesus said, ‘What do you want me to do for you'’ The blind man said to him, ‘Rabbi, I want to see again!’ And Jesus said to him, ‘Be on your way, your trust has cured you.’ And right away he regained his sight, and he started to follow him on the road” (Mark, 10:51-52). In the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, Jesus also uses his healing powers to help save lives.
