The reason I can't interpret the first gospel (beyond of what it was) as an allegory of Israel (et similia) is that the notion of a "descent benefiting" (ending obviously with a celestial death) through the lower heavens is totally unrelated, in Basilides, to the idea of a 'going through' the country of Galilee.
Sic et simpliciter.
