    VALENTINUS and the GNOSTIKOI* One of the Few Data in the Study Of

    CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR VALENTINUS AND THE GNOSTIKOI* One of the few data in the study of Gnosticism that always seemed rather certain was the hypothesis that the “mythological Gnosis” as represented by the sect of the Gnostikoi of Irenaeus 1.29, the Apocryphon of John and so many other writings found near Nag Hammadi, preceded the more “philosophical Gnosis” of Valentinus and his pupils.1 Bentley Layton accepted this view and made it the fundamental historical thesis of his book The Gnostic Scriptures.2 According to him Valentinus was a Christian reformer of an already existing gnostic tradition and in fact used a version of this gnostic myth of origins as his main system of orientation. Christoph Markschies has recently challenged this approach to gnostic origins and criticised it in the sharpest possible way.3 He does not deny that all known pupils of Val- entinus were infl uenced by this originally Jewish form of Gnosticism, but he holds that Valentinus himself is an exception to the rule and in fact was nothing but a more or less orthodox, apologetic, Christian theologian like Clement of Alexandria and Origen. In order to prove this assumption, he discusses critically the evidence which seems to point out that Valentinus knew the myth of the Gnostikoi. He has, however, ignored one passage which seems relevant to this problem. Irenaeus quite often mentions the Gnostikoi, mostly together with the Valentinians: according to him they are a separate sect. He never calls other groups, the Valentinians, Marcionites, Basilidians etc. gnostic.4 The use of the word gnostic in a general sense to indicate all sorts of heretics is modern.

  • THE ENDURING GODDESS: Artemis and Mary, Mother of Jesus”

    THE ENDURING GODDESS: Artemis and Mary, Mother of Jesus”

    “THE ENDURING GODDESS: Artemis and Mary, Mother of Jesus” Carla Ionescu A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HUMANITIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2016 © Carla Ionescu, 2016 ii Abstract: Tradition states that the most popular Olympian deities are Apollo, Athena, Zeus and Dionysius. These divinities played key roles in the communal, political and ritual development of the Greco-Roman world. This work suggests that this deeply entrenched scholarly tradition is fissured with misunderstandings of Greek and Ephesian popular culture, and provides evidence that clearly suggests Artemis is the most prevalent and influential goddess of the Mediterranean, with roots embedded in the community and culture of this area that can be traced further back in time than even the arrival of the Greeks. In fact, Artemis’ reign is so fundamental to the cultural identity of her worshippers that even when facing the onslaught of early Christianity, she could not be deposed. Instead, she survived the conquering of this new religion under the guise of Mary, Mother of Jesus. Using methods of narrative analysis, as well as review of archeological findings, this work demonstrates that the customs devoted to the worship of Artemis were fundamental to the civic identity of her followers, particularly in the city of Ephesus in which Artemis reigned not only as Queen of Heaven, but also as Mother, Healer and Saviour. Reverence for her was as so deeply entrenched in the community of this city, that after her temple was destroyed, and Christian churches were built on top of her sacred places, her citizens brought forward the only female character in the new ruling religion of Christianity, the Virgin Mary, and re-named her Theotokos, Mother of God, within its city walls.

  • Early Church Attitudes to Nudity

    Early Church Attitudes to Nudity

    Early Church Attitudes To Nudity Clement of Alexandria on exposing our nakedness The famous early Church leader, Clement of Alexandria (150-215 A.D.) expressed the typical attitude of Christians in the 100’s and 200’s A.D. to women exposing their nakedness to any man, except that related to a husband and his wife, when he wrote: “Women should not seek to be graceful by avoiding broad drinking vessels that oblige them to stretch their mouths, in order to drink from narrow alabastra that cause them indecently to throw back the head, revealing to men their necks and breasts. The mere thought of what she is ought to inspire a woman with modesty…On no account must a woman be permitted to show to a man any portion of her body naked, for fear lest both fall: the one by gazing eagerly, the other by delighting to attract those eager glances.” 1 Clement spoke very highly of marriage in Chapter 23 “On Marriage” in Book 2 of his writing “The Stromata”. He did not oppose husbands and wives exposing their nudity to each other. Roberts and Donaldson’s translation of the latter part of Clement’s quote above states: “But by no manner of means are women to be allowed to uncover and exhibit any part of their person, lest both fall, - the men by being excited to look, they by drawing on themselves the eyes of the men.” 2 Clement did not regard a woman or man’s sexual organs or “pudenda” in Latin as being created as sinful and shameful.

    Are You, Or Have You Ever Been a Gnostic?” Caricatures, Blacklists, and Understanding the Aspirations and Lives of Real People

    “Are you, or have you ever been a gnostic?” Caricatures, Blacklists, and Understanding the Aspirations and Lives of Real People Michael Williams University of Washington (Westar Seminar, San Diego, November 21, 2014) I have been asked to provide a summary of principal theses in my books The Immovable Race and Rethinking "Gnosticism,"1 and an update on how my views have evolved during subsequent debates regarding the usefulness of “gnosticism” as a critical category for reconstructing Christian origins. I am certainly honored by this invitation and I offer my sincere thanks to Lane McGaughy and the steering committee of the Christianity Seminar of Westar Institute for the opportunity to be included in this discussion. A confession at the outset: The connection in my title of the term “blacklists” with the topic of so-called “gnostics” is an application I have borrowed from a just- published book by Geoffrey Smith, Guilt by Association: Heresy Catalogues in Early Christianity,2 a fine and important study that I had the privilege of examining somewhat in advance. I don’t recall that Smith actually conjures up Joseph McCarthy by means of any explicit reference, and certainly Smith’s intriguing thesis about what is going on with Irenaeus of Lyons is far subtler than a heavy-handed blacklisting of the bishop himself as a theological McCarthyite. But Smith’s study is one the many helpful analyses by new generations of scholars from whom I have learned an enormous amount about a topic that has preoccupied me for almost five decades. And as I was reflecting on themes for this paper, Geoff’s use of “blacklists” struck me as something worth stealing for inclusion in the caption.

MALATY St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Church 427 West Side Ave. Jersey City, NJ 07304 Reverend Father Tadros Y. Malaty has kindly permitted that his books be published in the COeRL. He has requested that we convey that any suggestions or amendments regarding their translation are welcome, and should be forwarded to: [email protected] 2 3 4 Introduction THE SCHOOL OF ALEXANDRIA AND THE CONTEMPORARY CHURCH We are in need of studying the thoughts of the School of Alex- andria, especially during the period of the first five centuries. It helps us to attain the divine grace of the Holy Trinity and practice the unity with the Father and the Son through the work of the Holy Spirit. It reveals how the early Church understands the Holy Scrip- tures, christianizes the Hellenic culture, and faces heresies. The texts that the Alexandrian Fathers used in this study de- pend on: Ante-Nicene Fathers, Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Ancient Writings of the Church, the Fathers of the Church, Source Christian, etc. The help of the following persons for revising, editing and typ- ing this text have been valuable and deeply appreciated: Dr. Maged S. Mikhail, M.D., Mary Rose Halim, Hala Morcos, Silvia George, Monica Bastawros, Nadia Doss, Peter Fam, and Peter Adel. We hope that this simple work will fill us with the grace of the Holy Spirit. Fr.
