Translation
No public-domain English translation; recommended modern edition: Violet MacDermot, *The Books of Jeu and the Untitled Text in the Bruce Codex* (Nag Hammadi Studies 13, Brill, 1978). Carl Schmidt's 1892 edition is German; no pre-1929 English translation of the Books of Jeu themselves is known. F. Lamplugh's 1918 *The Gnôsis of the Light* (in this corpus as `untitled-text-bruce-codex`) translates only the third tractate of the Bruce Codex, not the two Books of Jeu.
Bruce Codex (Codex Brucianus), a 4th–5th century Coptic manuscript brought to Britain in 1769 by James Bruce. Held at the Bodleian Library (Bruce MS 96).
Translation pending. This book has a placeholder entry — its codex provenance is recorded so citations resolve, but no full English translation has been imported yet.
