2439 Nous ENT_VAL_NOUS emanates_from Bythos ENT_VAL_BYTHOS high Irenaeus AH I.1.1: Bythos, after an immense period of silence with Sige, resolves to emit the beginning of all things. He projects Nous (also called Monogenes, Only-begotten, Father, and Beginning of all things) as his first emission. Nous alone among the aeons is able to comprehend the Father's immeasurable greatness. Nous is the first and highest visible expression of Bythos's inner being, paired with Aletheia (Truth). The emanation of Nous from Bythos is the first act of the divine self-disclosure within the Valentinian Pleroma. Irenaeus of Lyons, Adversus Haereses (Against Heresies), c. 180 CE; ed. Rousseau & Doutreleau, SC 263-264, 293-294, 210-211 (Cerf, 1979-2002) SRC_IRENAEUS_AH reviewed Gnostic and Neoplatonic (2nd–4th c.) PER_GNO_2ND_4TH
