Yeah, through it flipped the paradigm from the proto-Gnostic thought, which instead had God brought forth by a spontaneously existing original man.

In parallel with the resurgence of Platonism, it flipped from "physical first, spiritual second" (as Paul mentioned in 1 Cor 15) to "spiritual first, physical second" and the eventual demiurge went from an agent of salvation escaping the Epicurean doom of a soul which depends on a naturally occurring physical body to an agent of corruption imprisoning the Platonic intelligently designed forms to corrupted and imperfect physical embodiment.

The earlier stuff is much more interesting than the later nonsense.
