[Footnote 25: The theory that all existing things come from an
“indivisible point” which our text gives as that of Simon Magus and
of Basilides reappears in the Bruce Papyrus. Basilides’ remark about
only 1 in 1000 and 2 in 10,000 being fit for the higher mysteries
is repeated _verbatim_ in the _Pistis Sophia_, p. 354, Copt. Cf.

borrowings from Sextus begin on p. 70, the tricks of the magicians on

p. 23, which he ascribes to Pythagoras, but which is certainly from
Heraclitus (as Plutarch tells us), and the Categories of Aristotle
which a few pages earlier are also assigned to Pythagoras. His
treatment of Josephus will be dealt with in its place.]
