| Someone who has knowledge of religious or spiritual mysteries is sometimes called a hierophant. |
|
| The father of Apollonios the hierophant was, as mentioned above, C. Iulius Casianus Apollonios of Steiria. |
|
| Clearly this hierophant had achieved a social and political status similar to that enjoyed by Apollonios. |
|
| After the hierophant concluded his sermon, his fez-clad deacon took the mic. |
|
| He was a lover of women and a hierophant of art for art's sake. |
|
| In reply Apollonius named the successor to the office of the hierophant who, he foresaw, would initiate him at some future date, which prediction was subsequently fulfilled. |
|
| In that text, Master of Righteousness, who is the hierophant of the Essenes of Qumran, explains how God changed the rhythm of his words and corrected his mouth, so that God could utter real esoteric instructions. |
|
| Every hierophant, every true self realized being is a dragon of wisdom. |
|
| The hierophant, under his neon-yellow mitre and mask, was the Rev. Dr. Robert M. Price, theologian, professor of biblical criticism, and former fundamentalist Baptist. |
|
| Two gray-bearded men, the hierophant and the deacon, sat at a dais. |
|
| When he entered the temple and applied for initiation into the mysteries, Apollonius was refused by the hierophant on the ground that he was an 'enchanter. |
