Diabolos |
Cosmocrator -
in Valentinian gnosticism, Cosmocrator is ruler of the material cosmos in
the guise of Diabolos (the devil). His consort is Barbelo (q.v.)
and together "they sing praises to the Powers of the Light," which would
indicate that Cosmocrator is not wholly evil. [Rf. Pistis Sophia].
