G. R. S. Mead Echoes From the Gnosis

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. How Hellenism philosophized the ancient wisdom Of Egypt, we have already shown at great length in our volumes on T brice-greatest Hermes. The Chaldaean Oracles are a parallel endeavour, on a smaller scale, to philosophize the wisdom Of Chaldaea. In the Trismegistic writings, moreover, we had to deal with a series Of prose treatises, whereas in our Oracles we are to treat Of the fragments Of a single mystery-poem, which may with advantage be compared with the cycle of Jewish and Christian pseudepigraphic poems known as the Sibylline Oracles.
