—indicating that sin, which was set up and spread out against man, and which rendered him subject to death, should be deprived of its power, along with death, which rules [over men]; and that the lion, that is, antichrist, rampant against mankind in the latter days, should be trampled down by Him; and that He should bind “the dragon, that old serpent3769

[Ps. xliv. 5. Also lx. 12; xci. 13; cviii. 13.]

And the people began to shout, and my backers to exult. And I drew near to the trainer and took the branch; and he kissed me, and said to me, ‘Daughter, peace be with you:’ and I began to go gloriously to the Sanavivarian gate.8997

8997 This was the way by which the victims spared by the popular clemency escaped from the amphitheatre.

Then I awoke, and perceived that I was not to fight with beasts, but against the devil.  Still I knew that the victory was awaiting me. This, so far, I have completed several days before the exhibition; but what passed at the exhibition itself let who will write.”

[A clumsy exposition of St. John iii. 14.]

For the Spirit of prophecy by Moses did not teach us to believe in the serpent, since it shows us that he was cursed by God from the beginning; and in Isaiah tells us that he shall be put to death as an enemy by the mighty sword, which is Christ.

John iii. 14.

Him they introduce to bless their eucharistic (elements).8358

8358 Eucharistia (neut. pl.) = εὐχαριστεῖα (Fr. Junius in Oehler): perhaps “the place in which they celebrate the eucharist.”

Now the whole parade and doctrine of this error flowed from the following source.  They say that from the supreme primary Æon whom men speak of8359

8359 These words are intended to give the force of the “illo” of the original.

there emanated several other inferior Æons.  To all these, however, there opposed himself an Æon who name is Ialdabaoth.8360

8360 Roberston (Ch. Hist. i. p. 39, note 2, ed. 2. 1858) seems to take this word to mean “Son of Darkness or Chaos.”

He had been conceived by the permixture of a second Æon with inferior Æons; and afterwards, when he8361

8361 “Seque” Oehler reads here, which appears bad enough Latin, unless his “se” after “extendisse” is an error.

had been desirous of forcing his way into the higher regions, had been disabled by the permixture of the gravity of matter with himself to arrive at the higher regions; had been left in the midst, and had extended himself to his full dimensions, and thus had made the sky.8362

8362 Or, “heaven.”

Ialdabaoth, however, had descended lower, and had made him seven sons, and had shut from their view the upper regions by self-distension, in order that, since (these) angels could not know what was above,8363

8363 Or, “what the upper regions were.”

they might think him the sole God. These inferior Virtues and angels, therefore, had made man; and, because he had been originated by weaker and mediocre powers, he lay crawling, worm-like. That Æon, however, out of which Ialdaboath had proceeded, moved to the heart with envy, had injected into man as he lay a certain spark; excited whereby, he was through prudence to grow wise, and be able to understand the things above. So, again, the Ialdaboath aforesaid, turning indignant, had emitted out of himself the Virtue and similitude of the serpent; and this had been the Virtue in paradise—that is, this had been the serpent—whom Eve had believed as if he had been God the Son.8364
