Irenaeus, Barbelo emerged as the first thought of the transcendent god, and she was soon accompanied by Foreknowledge, Incorruptibility, Eternal Life, and others. The imperfect material realm is understood as a copy of the perfect spiritual realm, an idea partly derived from the Platonic doctrine of ideas, or forms. The myth also draws on the biblical theme of humanity as formed in the image of God; true or divine humanity, however, is that spiritual family brought into being in the realm of perfection as the spirit's image. That realm is the dwelling place of the spiritual Adamas, his son Seth, and the race or offspring of Seth.
The creator of the visible realm and of the earthly Adam and Eve of the biblical Garden of Eden is a lesser being, a ruler (archon) named Ialdabaoth, who is a dark caricature of the creator God of Genesis (the old Genesis) and the demiurge of Platonism. Wisdom, the lowest entity in the realm of perfection, creates Ialdabaoth (God stopper) in an unauthorized attempt to produce a likeness of herself. Ialdabaoth in turn creates the material cosmos and rules it with subordinate powers who are his own imperfect offspring. A willful and malevolent figure, Ialdabaoth is unaware of any power above him and is easily duped by providence into actions that either serve divine ends or are stymied by countermeasures from the divine realm. He does not realize that his cosmos is patterned after a more transcendent realm, and he ignorantly boasts that there is no god above him.
When, in response to that declaration, the image of the divine humanity above is revealed on the waters below an allusion ("the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters")—Ialdabaoth and his rulers fashion an Adam in its likeness. Wisdom then tricks Ialdabaoth into breathing life into the figure, an act that empties him of what power he had received from Wisdom and transfers it to Adam. The spiritual power now within Adam is portrayed as a feminine entity who supplies him with insight that makes him disobedient to Ialdabaoth. The latter then attempts to deprive Adam of his power by putting him to sleep, extracting the power from Adam's rib, and molding it into the shape of a woman. But Ialdabaoth's plan fails, for, in this revision of the biblical myth when Adam awakens and beholds the woman, Eve, he experiences an even deeper insight, an awakening from the "drunkenness of darkness."
Enraged, Ialdabaoth casts the couple from paradise, introduces sexual desire, and seduces Eve and begets from her Cain and Abel. Because their father is an oppressive archon rather than a human, however, Cain and Abel are the same. As archons, they rule over the material elements (fire, wind, earth, and water) and therefore also over the material bodies of future human beings. However, Adam begets his son Seth in the likeness of the divine Seth, son of Adamas, the prototype of ideal humanity. The human race is thus spiritually the seed of Seth, though bodily incarnation at birth entails a forgetting of that divine origin. The realization of one's spiritual ancestry must be reawakened by revelation.
Yaldabaoth is the Chief Archon created by the Goddess Sophia in the "form of a lion-faced serpent, with its eyes were like lightning fires which flash. She (Sophia/wisdom) cast it away from her, outside that place, that no one of the immortal ones might see it, for she had created it in ignorance. And she surrounded it with a luminous cloud, and she placed a throne in the middle of the cloud that no one might see it except the Holy Spirit who is called the mother of the living. And she called his name Yaltabaoth (Aka laldabaoth/ Yaldabaoth/Sakla/ Samael).
And the archons (Yaldabaoth) created seven powers for themselves, and the powers created for themselves six angels for each one until they became 365 angels.
And these are the bodies belonging with the names: the first is Athoth, a he has a sheep's face; the second is Eloaiou, he has a donkey's face; the third is Astaphaios, he has a hyena's face; the fourth is Yao, he has a serpent's face with seven heads; the fifth is Sabaoth, he has a dragon's face; the sixth is Adonin, he had a monkey's face; the seventh is Sabbede, he has a shining fire-face. This is the sevenness of the week.
But Yaldabaoth had a multitude of faces, more than all of them, so that he could put a face before all of them, according to his desire, when he is in the midst of seraphs. He shared his fire with them; therefore, he became lord over them. Because of the power of the glory he possessed of his mother's light, he called himself God. And he did not obey the place from which he came. And he united the seven powers in his thought with the authorities which were with him.
"For Yaldabaoth said, "I am God and there is no other God beside me."
Meanwhile in the Garden of Eden, the Goddess Asherah who had explained all their plans they had to fulfill in the past before given it a second thought, Abel hearing this became more furious and enraged.
"You stupid pathetic God's", Abel said angrily. "We're all equal in the sight of the universe, and when am done killing you all, then will I kill the foolish arrogant God called Sakla".
Yahweh tried to reason with Abel, but the more he would try to reason with him the more he's boiling in rage, Abel then gave the first attempt to attack Yahweh, who is been defended by Apex and Hiro as they both battled with Abel.
The two brothers battled with Abel earnestly, their strenuous could be felt all over creation, going toe to toe Abel was able to get a cut on Apex who began to bleed out a mixture of white substance like a bright star. About to kill Apex, Hiro stood in the gap and fought Abel to a standstill; both swords clash against the other causing the atmosphere to change, massive energy flowing from both swords as if it wants to reunite before causing a massive shockwave pulling both aside. With the look on Abel's face he could tell the amount of energy emanating from the sword of Azriel.
Abel then change his strategic fighting style as well as summoning demons from hell about to devour them, Yahweh then snapped his fingers freezing time instantly, Abel trying to unfreeze time was stopped by Yahweh who was willing to surrender;
"You don't have to fight me anymore", Yahweh said. "Asking his children to stand down, I know what I've done is unforgivable but I ask of one thing that together with the host of Angels will you stop Yaldabaoth and the other Gods".
Abel headed towards him, looking straight into his eyes, as Yahweh replied gently "that he was sorry for all that he had done, trying to repent of his doings to become a better God, for your parents would want the best of you and for this world". Abel then stabbed Yahweh with the sword of creation, just as he was about to pull out the sword Apex instantly beheaded Abel for his doings.
Bright light began emitting out of Yahweh who then revealed himself to be Asherah (secretly transforming to Yahweh in other to protect her husband). Asherah imitation who then transformed back to Yahweh was heartbroken to see his wife dying before his very eyes.
"Why?", Yahweh said as tears began to fall from his eyes. He tries healing Asherah but he couldn't.
"Make the right choice my love", Asherah said with a smile. "I know you to be a lovin' God".
And just then she transformed into a bright light that shun around creation creating a shockwave bursting through the atmosphere, for out of the bright light healed Apex of his injury.
Meanwhile in the third heaven, Yaldabaoth had gathered in the assembly of the other set of unique beings and amongst them are revealed to be Baal, El Elyon, and Adonai.
