Bullard, pro fessor of religion at Atlantic Christian College, is author of a recently published book entitled, “The Hypostasis of the Ar- chons.” The book is a translation and commentary on one of some 40 documents discovered in Egypt shortly following World War II. Translations were made by Dr. Bullard from photographic copies of the document origi nally written in Coptic on papyrus. Coptic was the lan guage spoken in Egypt about the time of Christ. The works were written by Gnostics, a religious group with affinities with Judaism, Christianity and other eastern religions. “The Hypostasis of the Ar- chons” is essentially a re-telling of the creation story in the book of Genesis from the Gnostic point of view. Ironically, the snake in the Garden of Eden was the hero...
