Note 513 — Chapter X · THE SYSTEM OF THE PISTIS SOPHIA AND ITS RELATED TEXTS[459]
Reading edition
The likeness of Mary the Mother and Mary Magdalene to the seven Virgins appears in the translation of Amélineau (Pistis Sophia, Paris, 1895, p. 60). Schwartze (p. 75, Lat.) puts it rather differently. See also Schmidt, K.-G.S. bd. 1, p. 75. The “receivers” of the Virgin of Light are mentioned on p. 292, Copt.
