A GLOSSARY OF GNOSTIC TERMS:

 
  - The Gnostic Glossary is divided into FOUR sections.
- To access entries, scroll down, then click on a term.
- For consistency and easy comparison, certain standard terms have been used in the explanations
  (and inserted in parentheses in the quotations). These standard terms are:

             - The One - for God, Father, Parent, Root etc.
             - The saviour - for the Son, Christ, Word, Autogenes, Seth etc.
             - Sophia - for Wisdom, Achamoth, Pistis etc.
             - The Elect - for the Gnostics, Pneumatics, Chosen ones, sons of Seth etc.

- All quotations are from the standard translations of the Nag Hammadi texts, unless otherwise noted.
- All square and pointed brackets (which indicate lacuna and corrected omissions in the standard translations) have been removed.
- Parentheses are used for the addition of standard terms.
- Only the title of the text is given as a reference. On some occasions, the standard page and line numbers are added.
- The source of the quotation may be found by copying it and doing an on-line search at the Nag Hammadi Library complements of Gnosis.org.
