This book is a new edition and translation of the Nag Hammadi
tractate, "The Concept of Our Great Power," with introduction and
commentary. It suggests that the tractate is composite, and that
its basis was a non-Christian Gnostic apocalyptic work whose
background may have been Samaritan, and which emanated from a
breakaway Simonian group who, unlike other Simonians, believed in
celibacy. The tractate later received Christian additions. The last
of these may refer to the career of Julian the Apostate. This is a
fresh approach to the interpretation of this puzzling tractate.
