-Until the seventeenth century, Hermes was thought to have been a contemporary of [[Moses]]. His writings were considered by Christians to be almost as sacred as the Bible. Church Father Justin Martyr even went so far as to compare him to Jesus. The Greek Church Father Clement of Alexandria spoke of forty-two “Books of Thoth” dealing with priestly education, temple ritual, geography, astrology, guidance for kings, hymns to the gods and medicine. Regrettably, these were lost in the burning of the library at Alexandria.
+Hasta el siglo XVII, se pensaba que Hermes había sido contemporáneo de [[Special:MyLanguage/Moses|Moisés]]. Los cristianos consideraban que sus escritos eran casi tan sagrados como la Biblia. El padre de la iglesia Justino Mártir llegó incluso a compararlo con Jesús. El padre de la iglesia griega Clemente de Alejandría habló de cuarenta y dos “Libros de Thoth” que tratan de la educación sacerdotal, el ritual del templo, la geografía, la astrología, la guía para los reyes, los himnos a los dioses y la medicina. Lamentablemente, estos se perdieron en el incendio de la biblioteca de Alejandría.
 Scholars today tell us Hermes was an ancient Egyptian sage, or perhaps a succession of sages. They believe that a whole line of teachers or a priesthood may have written under the name Hermes. The prevailing theory is that the Hermetic writings may span several centuries, dating as late as the first or second century <small>A</small>.<small>D</small>.
