Treasure of Life

Religious text of Manichaeism

The Treasure of Life is one of the seven treatises of the prophet Mani, written and regarded as part of the major canon of Manichaeism. The title is possibly derived from Christ's parable of the hidden treasure from Matthew 13:44, which is followed by the parable of the pearl in Matthew 13:45–46; incidentally, pearls are a major metaphor used in Mani's teaching. Also, the Syriac title, Simath Hayye, is identical with the name of an uthra in Mandaeism called Simat Hayyi.
