2. Jesus answered and said unto Mary in the midst of the disciples: "Amēn, amēn, I say
unto you: The second Helper is distant from the first Helper in great immeasurable

distance in regard to the height above and the depth below and the length and the
breadth. For he is exceedingly distant from him in great immeasurable distance through
the angels and all the archangels and through the gods and all the invisibles. And he is

gods and all the invisibles, as I have already said unto you at another time.

region every one hath received mysteries, there will he abide in his order in the

Inheritance of the Light.
4. For which cause I have said unto you aforetime: 'Where your heart is, there will your

5. It came to pass, when Jesus had finished saying these words unto his disciples, that John
