Description |
Abstract |
This chapter discusses how the late antique revelatory dialogue The Apocryphon of John–representing a form of Christianity rejected by the heresiologists–may have helped converts make sense of their experiences of changing religious allegiance through its engagement with the themes of humanity’s heavenly origin and struggles with evil forces. |
