13 I, 7, 4 | joined himself to Him. They maintain that he is the centurion
14 I, 8, 1 | executed; and should then maintain and declare that this was
15 I, 8, 2 | risen among the AEons. They maintain, further, that that girl
16 I, 8, 4 | passion, from which they maintain that matter derived its
17 I, 9, 2 | perverting these statements, maintain that there was another Monogenes,
18 I, 9, 2 | also style Arche. They also maintain that there was another Saviour,

25 I, 16, 1 | ninety-nine. Wherefore also they maintain the word "Amen" contains

29 I, 17, 1 | of things invisible. They maintain, then, that first of all
30 I, 17, 1 | influence upon it, they maintain that this is a most evident
31 I, 18, 1 | the earth;" for, as they maintain, by naming these four,--
32 I, 18, 2 | same image. Moreover, they maintain that the long robe of the

34 I, 18, 4 | from which passion they maintain that all things visible
35 I, 19, 1 | become unprofitable," they maintain to be said concerning ignorance
36 I, 19, 2 | shown as we proceed. They maintain that Daniel also set forth
37 I, 20, 2 | who could utter it," they maintain, that by this expression "

39 I, 21, 4 | mentioned. And this they maintain to be the redemption. They,
40 I, 21, 4 | all these practices, and maintain that the mystery of the
41 I, 25, 1 | again, and his followers maintain that the world and the things
42 I, 25, 2 | others, still more mighty, maintain that they are superior to
43 I, 25, 4 | practise them; for they maintain that things are evil or
44 I, 25, 4 | makers of the world, and maintain that he delivers such souls [
45 I, 25, 6 | of material; while they maintain that a likeness of Christ
46 I, 29, 1 | perfect. Moreover, they maintain that this was Christ, who
47 I, 29, 4 | Next they maintain, that from the first angel,
48 I, 30, 1 | the first man. They also maintain that his Ennoea, going forth
49 I, 30, 1 | woman. Afterwards, they maintain, the first man, with his
50 I, 30, 4 | also generated a son: they maintain that again a son was generated
51 I, 30, 9 | besprinkling of light. They maintain, moreover, that the holy
52 I, 30, 11| father and God, and they maintain that Sophia, herself has
53 I, 30, 12| of their power. For they maintain that the whole besprinkling
54 I, 31, 2 | experience. An angel, they maintain, attends them in every one
55 I, 31, 2 | thy operation !" And they maintain that this is "perfect knowledge,"
56 II, 1, 3 | is beyond it. But if they maintain this, there will then be
57 II, 1, 4 | chooses to employ it may maintain that there is another Pleroma
58 II, 2, 1 | this very point, that they maintain that angels formed such
59 II, 2, 3 | formation. Although they maintain that the angels were made
60 II, 4, 3 | and vacuity, in which they maintain that the creation with which
61 II, 4, 3 | Himself. Thus, then, when they maintain that these things were the
62 II, 5, 1 | answer to those, again, who maintain that this world was formed
63 II, 5, 2 | state of ignorance. For they maintain that, on His coming forth
64 II, 5, 3 | all those who, in any way, maintain that the world was formed
65 II, 6, 3 | truly ridiculous, if they maintain that they themselves indeed,
66 II, 6, 3 | unless perchance they maintain that Bythus lives in Tartarus
67 II, 7, 2 | Father of all, and [yet maintain] that this image was ignorant
68 II, 7, 3 | among their AEons, and to maintain that some of them were produced
69 II, 7, 6 | If, however, these men maintain that they are spiritual,
70 II, 8, 1 | them are bold enough to maintain, so that in this respect
71 II, 8, 2 | If, however, they maintain that the shadow spoken of
72 II, 9, 2 | universe. But the latter maintain that He, [i.e., the Creator

74 II, 12, 4 | how can they themselves maintain that they tend again to
75 II, 12, 6 | on the other hand, they maintain that, as in production,
76 II, 12, 7 | other AEons. Some of them maintain that this Horos was produced
77 II, 12, 7 | thirty productions, as they maintain, were sent forth, but four
78 II, 12, 8 | it follows that what they maintain respecting their Ogdoad
79 II, 13, 1 | must be rejected. For they maintain that Nous and Aletheia were
80 II, 13, 1 | like the truth for them to maintain that Ennoea was produced
81 II, 13, 5 | of God, into which they maintain it was sent forth? And what
82 II, 13, 6 | the Propator. But if they maintain any such hypothesis, they
83 II, 13, 7 | world; which things they maintain to have derived their substance
84 II, 13, 8 | of the AEons]. For they maintain that Logos and Zoe were
85 II, 13, 9 | And neither can any one maintain that intelligence is more
86 II, 13, 10| being wicked thieves. They maintain that it is more suitable
87 II, 14, 2 | their Mother, which they maintain to be themselves; thus acknowledging
88 II, 14, 3 | did the atoms; while they maintain that those which are without
89 II, 14, 3 | existence. Again, when they maintain that these things [below]
90 II, 14, 4 | things out of which they maintain it was also formed, and
91 II, 14, 7 | Son," unless indeed they maintain that their seed or Mother
92 II, 15, 1 | belong to creation. For they maintain that those things [above]
93 II, 15, 3 | concerning those which, as they maintain, are primary. For we do
94 II, 17, 7 | For they can no longer maintain that, of beings so produced,
95 II, 17, 7 | some of them venture to maintain, then, inasmuch as it originated
96 II, 17, 9 | consideration]. This only they maintain, that each one of these
97 II, 17, 9 | to proceed so far as to maintain that their Word, who springs
98 II, 17, 9 | Nous of the Propator,--to maintain, I say, that he was produced
99 II, 17, 9 | of the Father. They also maintain that the Saviour exhibited
100 II, 17, 10| strength from it, while ye maintain that the greatness and power
101 II, 18, 3 | perfect, by the fact that they maintain they have found their Bythus;
102 II, 18, 5 | brilliance of] the sun; for they maintain that Bythus [himself] was
103 II, 18, 7 | the Father brings, as they maintain, truth, and perfection,
104 II, 19, 6 | animal being, having, as they maintain, his own special magnitude
105 II, 20, 1 | after His baptism. They maintain also that the same thing
106 II, 20, 2 | They ought therefore to maintain that the twelfth AEon was
107 II, 21, 1 | If, again, they maintain that the twelve apostles

109 II, 22, 5 | acceptable year of the Lord," maintain that He preached for one
110 II, 23, 1 | was made whole; for they maintain that through her was shown
111 II, 23, 1 | general form and features, to maintain a likeness [to what is typified],
112 II, 23, 2 | suffering. But they cannot maintain this; otherwise their primary
113 II, 24, 3 | and altogether absurd [to maintain] that the types were not
114 II, 24, 3 | the Scriptures, and then maintain that this was a type of
115 II, 24, 5 | do the months, which they maintain to be a type of the Triacontad,
116 II, 27, 2 | themselves testify, when they maintain that the Saviour privately

119 II, 28, 9 | or any other of those who maintain that they have searched
120 II, 29, 1 | inasmuch as they no longer maintain that souls pass, on account
121 II, 29, 3 | righteous only. For they maintain that, according to nature
122 II, 29, 3 | their Pleroma? For they maintain that souls shall continue
123 II, 30, 1 | things that are in them, and maintain that they themselves are

139 II, 35, 1 | principles, find it necessary to maintain not only that there are
140 II, 35, 2 | termed Gnostics, and who maintain that the prophets uttered
141 III, 2, 2 | unadulterated truth. For [they maintain] that the apostles intermingled

152 IV, 19 | WITHOUT ABSOLUTE MADNESS, MAINTAIN THAT GOD IS KNOWN TO US
153 IV, 33, 3 | but do at the same time maintain that He who formed all things
