because they are matter. The power then which was in Isaiah, prophesied concerning
thee aforetime, saying: 'From now on ye shall then know not what the lord Sabaōth will

do.' Because of the light-power which thou didst receive from Sabaōth, the Good, who is
in the region of the Right, and which is in thy material body to-day, for this cause then,
my Lord Jesus, thou hast said unto us: 'Who hath ears to hear, let him hear,'--in order
that thou mightest know whose heart is ardently raised to the kingdom of heaven."

CHAPTER 19
1. It came to pass then, when Mary had finished saying these words, that he said: "Well

said, Mary, for thou art blessed before all women on the earth, because thou shalt be
the fulness of all fulnesses and the perfection of all perfections."

2. Now when Mary had heard the Saviour speak these words, she exulted greatly, and she
came before Jesus, fell down before him, adored his feet and said unto him: "My Lord,
hearken unto me, that I may question thee on this word, before that thou discoursest

with us about the regions whither thou didst go."

3. Jesus answered and said unto Mary: "Discourse in openness and fear not; all things on
which thou questionest, I will reveal unto thee."

CHAPTER 20
1. She said: "My Lord, will all the men who know the mystery of the magic of all the rulers
of all the æons of the Fate and of those of the sphere, in the way in which the angels
who transgressed have taught them, if they invoke them in their mysteries, that is in
their evil magic, to the hindering of good deeds,--will they accomplish them henceforth
from now on or not?"

2. Jesus answered and said unto Mary: "They will not accomplish them as they
accomplished them from the beginning, because I have taken away a third of their
power; but they will raise a loan from those who know the mysteries of the magic of the
thirteenth æon.
3. And if they invoke the mysteries of the magic of those who are in the thirteenth æon,

they will accomplish them well and surely, because I have not taken away power from
that region, according to the command of the First Mystery."
