On the origin of the world (OTOOTW)

Tractate II,5, whose title has not come down to us, is an encyclopedic compendium of basic Gnostic ideas, above all on protology and eschatology; terrestrial history is largely excluded from discussion, and the upper world and its development are not described in any detail.

520 |a Tractate II,5, whose title has not come down to us, is an encyclopedic compendium of basic Gnostic ideas, above all on protology and eschatology; terrestrial history is largely excluded from discussion, and the upper world and its development are not described in any detail. Partly academic in style (with numerous etiologies and etymologies), it has the form of an apologetic essay intended for public dissemination. The work was probably composed in Alexandria at the end of the third century A.D. or beginning of the fourth. It does not represent any known Gnostic system, and draws upon a variety of sources and traditions. The anonymous and otherwise unknown author refers to the subject of the treatise in his opening; on this basis the work is now often referred to by a modern, hypothetical title On the Origin of the World (OnOrgWld)
