Pistis Sophia is a key Gnostic text translated and edited by scholar G. R. S. Mead. It presents esoteric Christian teachings attributed to Jesus, revealed privately to his disciples after the resurrection. The text explores complex cosmology, the nature of divine realms, and the fall and redemption of the celestial being Pistis Sophia (Wisdom). Rich in mystical symbolism, it incorporates elements of astrology, Jewish mysticism, and early Christian Gnosticism. Mead's translation preserves the depth and intricacy of this ancient work, making it accessible to modern readers interested in alternative spiritual traditions and the hidden teachings attributed to Christ. A vital document for students of esoteric spirituality and early religious thought.
