Confirmed across multiple independent bibliographic listings, a research library catalog and several antiquarian booksellers, since the publisher's own product page blocks direct automated access. Cited here for the content and structure of the text itself, not for any claim about how Sethian communities historically used it, which the surviving manuscript evidence does not settle on its own.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (31 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1Published by E.
