The Apocalypse of Paul — Paul’s ascent through the seven heavens, guided by the Spirit, past the toll gates and interrogators of the Archons.
📜 Authorship & Translation
Translation by George W. MacRae & William R. Murdock from The Nag Hammadi Library in English, ed. James M. Robinson (Harper & Row, 1988). Reproduced here for educational and spiritual use under fair use.
The Apocalypse of Paul (Codex V, 2) dramatizes the apostle’s journey beyond the material heavens. Tested at each gate by the cosmic rulers, he learns the hidden sign of freedom that releases the soul from their power.
This ascent symbolizes the awakening of consciousness through gnosis — the victory of remembrance over judgment.
