Kalliform

 

Pronunciation:  KAHL-lee-form

Occurrences:  6

First Reference:  6th Endowment 11:56-57

 

But in the personal guard of Yaldabaoth did there stride the very Kalliform, which Kalliform Yaldabaoth did fashion from himself and the first Eidos together; for the Kalliform did act for Yaldabaoth as his own personal army, being themselves ferocious towards all things save their master only.

And before the Kalliform did even the dark princes most inward tremble, for of all the Demiurge were they made the monsters which kept in line the dark princes themselves, lest they think to war against their father, to usurp the power of his might and take it to themselves.

 

 

See:  Demiurge, Eidos, Yaldabaoth

 

Summary:  The Kalliform were created by the Chief Demiurge, Yaldabaoth, to serve as his own personal guardians (6:11:56-57). Even the dark princes, including Jehovah-Yahweh, are terrified of the Kalliform.

 

 

Azrael’s Commentary — Oggaliaphim (excerpt)

[...] At the battle of Soli-Endi-Muhat, the Oggaliaphim presented themselves as rampaging lions of great ferocity, ripping and tearing their way through the ranks of the Kalliform. More than five hundred of the Kalliform found themselves cast into the great Abyss as a result of meeting the Oggaliaphim in battle. [...]
