The Viper in the Acts of Philip

A possibly related creature to the Hesiodic Echidna is the "Viper" (Echidna) cast into an abyss, by Philip the Apostle, in the apocryphal Acts of Philip.[62] Called a "she dragon" (drakaina) and "the mother of the serpents",[63] this Echidna ruled over many other monstrous dragons and snakes, and lived in a gated temple at Hierapolis,[64] where she was worshipped by the people of that land. She, along with her temple and priests, was swallowed up by a hole in the ground that opened beneath her, as the result of Philip's curse.

The Eua who is Eve

CHRYSIPPUS, Encomium in Joannem Baptistam. {2802.004}

ἀφροσύνη βασιλέως, ὢ ἔκστασις φρενῶν, ὢ σκότωσις λογισμῶν, ὢ πώρωσις
ψυχῆς, ὢ ἀναίδεια γυναικός, ὢ αἴτησις θυγατρὸς τῆς πλάνης· πῶς τὸν λό-
γον τῆς ἀπειρημένης ἀποκρίσεως τῆς μητρὸς ταχὺ προσεκόμισεν. Ἀλλ’ ἐροῦ-
μεν πρὸς σέ, παράνομε Ἡρῴδη, οὐκ ἠδύνου τὸ ῥῆμά σου πληρῶσαι καὶ τὸ (15)
ἥμισυ τῆς βασιλείας σου δοῦναι, ἧς ὑπέσχου κακῶς καὶ μὴ δοῦναι ὃ οὐχ
ὑπέσχου σάρκας καὶ αἷμα, οὗ οὐκ ἦν μιᾶς τριχὸς ἀνταξία ἡ βασιλεία σου;
τὸ ἥμισυ τῆς βασιλείας εἶπας· στῆσον τὸ ῥῆμά σου, ὦ βασιλεῦ· πῶς ὑπέ-
σχου; χαρίσματα δόξης χρηματικῆς δοῦναι ἢ κεφαλὴν προφήτου; ἀλλ’ ὡς
ἔοικεν ἐκ τῆς ἀκαθάρτου δρακαίνης ἐκείνης ἠπατήθης, ὡς Ἀδάμ ποτε ἐκ (20)
τῆς Εὔας. Ἀλλ’ Ἀδὰμ μὲν καὶ οἱ σὺν αὐτῷ τῆς κατάρας ἠλευθερώθησαν @1
(45) διὰ τοῦ ἀχράντου τόκου τῆς ἀπειράνδρου θεοτόκου καὶ ἀειπαρθένου Μα-
ρίας, σὺ δέ, ὦ παράνομε, πρὸς οἷς οὐκ ἠλευθερώθης διὰ τὸν λόγον, ὃν
εἶπέ σοι ὁ προφήτης Ἰωάννης, ἀλλὰ καὶ υἱὸς σκότους καὶ γεέννης καὶ ἀπω-
λείας καὶ πυρὸς αἰωνίου τρυφὴ γέγονας.]

  • drakaina (δρακαίνης)
  • aion (αἰωνίου)

τῆς Εὔας - what is Eve (Εὔας) doing so close to the drakaina (δρακαίνης)? To the new priestess, who succeeds the mother, when the greater must fall? Who is she? She is the Eve. What is the Eve? the Eve is the Eua (Εὔας), she is the shout of the satanic Bacchant. Do you know who else is the Echidnaic Priestess? Mary. This is what our christian sources are telling us, straight to our faces.

No theology middle man here. This is history. The Echidnaic Priesthood is a fact that we find ALL OVER the christian works. Because it is the uncorrupted mystery.
