Egyptian Gnosticism is a book by J. E. Thorold Rogers that explores the ancient religious beliefs and practices of the Gnostics in Egypt. The book provides a detailed account of the various Gnostic sects that emerged in Egypt during the early Christian era, including the Sethians, Valentinians, and Basilidians. It also examines the key themes and ideas that were central to Egyptian Gnosticism, such as the concept of gnosis (knowledge), the role of the divine feminine, and the belief in a transcendent God beyond the material world. Rogers draws on a wide range of sources, including Gnostic texts, early Christian writings, and archaeological evidence, to provide a comprehensive overview of this fascinating and complex religious movement. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion, ancient Egypt, or the development of early Christian thought.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Bible Folklore A Study in Comparative Mythology, by J.
