The Fall Of Sophia | Gnostic Genesis - Narrated By Matthew Schmitz of Altrusian Grace Media27 Sept10 min

<p>Before Genesis became doctrine, another version of the story was buried in the Egyptian desert. In this one, the god who made the world is a mistake - and the serpent in the garden came to wake us up.</p><p><br></p><p>The Fall of Sophia is an animated retelling of the Gnostic creation myth, drawn directly from the Nag Hammadi library: the texts sealed in a clay jar and hidden in Upper Egypt around the 4th century, then dug up by a farmer in December 1945.</p><p><br></p><p>The story begins in the Pleroma, the Fullness of the invisible Spirit. It follows Sophia, the aeon of Wisdom, whose act of creation without her partner breaks the order of heaven. From that break comes Yaldabaoth, the lion-faced serpent, a blind creator who builds the material world, rules it through the archons, and declares, &quot;I am a jealous God. There is no other God beside me.&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>From there the film follows the making of Adam, the spark of light trapped inside the human body, and the Gnostic garden of Eden, where the serpent becomes the Instructor and the forbidden fruit becomes the first act of awakening.</p><p><br></p><p>Each scene is sourced from the primary texts: the Apocryphon of John, the Hypostasis of the Archons, On the Origin of the World, and the Testimony of Truth. The accounts of the Ophite and Naassene serpent sects come from the early church writers who opposed them, and the film says so.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>🎙 Narrated by Matthew Schmitz of Altrusian Grace Media</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@AltrusianGraceMedia" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.youtube.com/@AltrusianGraceMedia</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>🎬 Written and produced by Jason Abadi | HC SVNT DRACONES</strong></p><p><a href="https://jasonabadi.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://jasonabadi.com</a></p><p><a href="https://skysignalradio.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://skysignalradio.com</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>🎵 Music By NËXP</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@nexp7" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.youtube.com/@nexp7</a></p><p><a href="https://soundcloud.com/nicodemus_experiment" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://soundcloud.com/nicodemus_experiment</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>PRIMARY SOURCES</strong>Apocryphon of John (Nag Hammadi Codex II,1; III,1; IV,1; Berlin Codex 8502,2)Hypostasis of the Archons (NHC II,4)On the Origin of the World (NHC II,
