2000+ years ago, the general populace wasn't privy to this info,
thats why one had to be selected, or in a way 'cultivated' to attend
these 'mystery schools'...the goddess 'cults' abounded throughout
the regions
a member here, NephraTari ? posted lots of links on Gnosticism.
but it was up to the individual to research the different angles, aspects of TheGnostic.
pretty good & succinct article there...
i'm lost on your question as to '...then what did they know ofthem before?'
the Gnosis was the body of knowledge at that time...then the Patriarch Model took over, organized religion began, and its been downhill since then
