2436 Yaldabaoth ENT_GNO_YALDABAOTH identified_with Saklas ENT_GNO_SAKLAS high "Saklas" (Aramaic: "fool") is one of three names given to Yaldabaoth in Sethian texts: Yaldabaoth ("Child of chaos"), Saklas ("Fool"), and Samael ("Blind god"). Apocryphon of John (NHC II,1:11): "He is imperfect compared to the immortal father, for he is not perfect... He said to his fellows, 'I am God and no other god exists except me.' But by saying this, he showed the angels who were with him that there is another god; for if there were no other one, of whom would he be jealous?" The name Saklas most directly expresses his defining characteristic — ignorance/foolishness — in contrast to the Gnostic divine Nous (Mind). NHC II,1.
