thee."
6. And Jesus answered in great compassion and said unto John: "To thee also, blessed
John, and beloved, I give commandment to speak the word which pleaseth thee, and I
will reveal it unto thee face to face without similitude, and I will say unto thee all on
which thou wilt question me with precision and certainty."

7. And John answered and said unto Jesus: "My Lord, will then every one abide in the
region up to which he hath received the mysteries, and hath he no power to go. into
other orders which are above him; and hath he no power to go into the orders which
are below him?"
