shareth not in the words of truth,--amēn, I say unto you: That man, if he cometh forth
out of the body, will be judged in no region of the rulers, nor can he be chastized in any

region at all, nor will the fire touch him, because of the great mystery of the Ineffable
which is with him.
7. "And they will hasten quickly and hand him over one to another in turn and lead him
from region to region and from order to order, until they bring him before the Virgin of
Light, while all the regions are in fear of the mystery and the sign of the kingdom of the
Ineffable which is with him.

8. "And if they bring him before the Virgin of Light, then the Virgin of Light will see the sign
of the mystery of the kingdom of the Ineffable which is with him; the Virgin of Light
marvelleth and proveth him, but suffereth them not to bring him to the Light, until he
accomplisheth the total citizenship of the light of that mystery, that is the purities of the

renunciation of the world and also of the total matter therein.
9. "The Virgin of Light sealeth him with a higher seal, which is this [ . . .? ], and letteth him
in that month in which he hath come out of the body of matter, light down into a body
which will be righteous and find the godhead in truth and the higher mysteries, so that
he may inherit them and inherit the Light eternal, which is the gift of the second
mystery of the First Mystery of the Ineffable.

10. "The third mystery of that Ineffable on the other hand,--the man indeed who shall
accomplish that mystery, not only if he [himself] cometh forth out of the body, will he
inherit the kingdom of the mystery, but if he complete that mystery and accomplish it

with all its figures, that is if he go through with that mystery and accomplish it finely and
pronounce the name of that mystery over a man who cometh forth out of the body and
hath known that mystery,--let the former have delayed or rather not have delayed,--one
who is in the dire chastisements of the rulers and in their dire judgments and their
manifold fires,--amēn, I say unto you: The man who hath come forth out of the body,--if

the name of this mystery is pronounced on his behalf, they will hasten quickly to bring
him over and hand him over one to another, until they bring him before the Virgin of
Light.
11. And the Virgin of Light will seal him with a higher seal, which is this [ . . .?], and in that
month will she let him light down into the righteous body which will find the godhead in

truth and the higher mystery, so that he inherit the Light-kingdom. This, therefore, is the
gift of the third mystery of the Ineffable.

12. "Now, therefore, every one who shall receive one of the five mysteries of the Ineffable,-
-if he cometh forth out of the body and inheriteth up to the region of that mystery, then
