“Lively reading…a book that makes familiar concepts disturbingly fresh and provocative.” —The New York Times
“Pagels has achieved something important…. Thoughtful scholarly works that are also original and adventurous are not common. The Origin of Satan is such a work, and we should be correspondingly grateful.” —New York Review of Books
