Centaur the brave (npub1cwy…cpam) Christmassy Merry Dude (npub1ecj…fchy) i fucken feel you. nothing riles my fucken shit up like people trying to hide something (read about some OTO rituals and hunted down some stuff on the OTO assfucking rites out of principle earlier: https://mirr0r.city/notice/AUvXVZlkP37t33vnWq )
so i think if you wanna read them, you go fucken read them. it sounds like monoeye ceo knows their shit and gave you some good advice. to me the notion of 'becoming gnostic' is more like - you so resonate with some core of gnosticism that it becomes a core part of your identity, and you should prob read it before you do that
why christians don't talk about it, and why they don't like it, is a good ass question. like: i was reading into the book of jubilees, and a good question is 'why is this considered pseudepigrapha, and not canon?'
from the wikipedia article like:
It was well known to Early Christians, as evidenced by the writings of Epiphanius, Justin Martyr, Origen, Diodorus of Tarsus, Isidore of Alexandria, Isidore of Seville, Eutychius of Alexandria, John Malalas, George Syncellus, and George Kedrenos. The text was also utilized by the community that originally collected the Dead Sea Scrolls. No complete Greek or Latin version is known to have survived, but the Ge'ez version has been shown to be an accurate translation of the versions found in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
...
It appears that early Christian writers held the book of Jubilees in high regard, as many of them cited and alluded to Jubilees in their writing.[18] In relationship to the New Testament, the book of Jubilees contains one of the earliest references to the idea that God gave the Law to Moses through an angelic mediator. This idea is likewise reflected in the epistle to the Galatians.[19]
Jan van Reeth argues that the Book of Jubilees had great influence on the formation of Islam.[20] Etsuko Katsumata, comparing the Book of Jubilees and the Quran, notices significant differences, especially in Abraham's role in the Quranic narrative. He says that "The Quran has many passages in which Abraham expounds the errors in idolatry. In these passages, Abraham always addresses his words to local people, and he does not leave their land. This probably reflects Islam’s position that aims at converting idol worshippers to monotheistic religion and settling in their place of residence."[21]
so it was there, every abrahamic religion was into it, but it wasn't canonized so we didn't even have it until we randomly fuckin found it in a cave
im a quaker faggot and believe that its all about your personal relationship with God and im not into ppl trying to mediate that! lemme read the damn jubilees and see with my own eyes+heart if it seems holy!
