those who have understood themselves shall enjoy them. (Ecc 6:12, Th 2 67) 112. Not only shall they be unable to seize the perfected person, but they shall be unable (even) to see him. For if they see him, they will seize him. In no other manner will one be able to be begotten of Him in this grace, unless he is clothed in the Perfect Light and Perfect Light is upon him. [Thus clad], he shall go [forth from the world]. This is the perfected [Son of the Bridal-Chamber]. (Mt 5:48, Ph 85) 113. [It is appropriate] that we be made to become [perfected persons] before we come forth [from the world]. (Mt 5:48) Whoever has received everything [without being made master] of these places, will [not be able to master] that place; but rather he shall [go] forth to the transition as imperfect. Only Yeshua knows the destiny of this one.¹ (¹that is, no one else can measure imperfection, Mt 25:31-46, Jn 8:7; Ph 10 68 112) 114. The Saint is entirely holy, including his body. For if he received the bread he will sanctify it, or the chalice, or everything else he receives he purifies. And how will he not purify the body also? (Jn 20:27; anti-Gnostic!!) 115. Yeshua poured death away by perfecting the water of Baptism. Because of this, we indeed are sent down into the water — yet not down unto death,¹ (but rather) in order that we be poured away from the spirit of the world. Whenever that blows, its winter occurs; (but²) when the Sacred Spirit breathes, the summer comes. (Mt 28:19, Ph 7 96 103; ¹this appears to be an explicit rejection of Paul's doctrine in Rom 6:3-4; ²asyndeton) 116. Whoever recognizes the truth is liberated. Yet he who is liberated does not transgress, for ‘the transgressor is the slave of the transgression.’ (=Jn 8:32-36!, I-Jn 3:9) The Mother is the truth, yet 76
the Union° is the recognition. The world calls liberated those to whom it is given not to transgress. The recognition of the truth exalts the hearts of these to whom it is given not to transgress. This is what liberates them and exalts them over the whole place. Yet love is inspirational. He however who has been liberated thru recognition is enslaved by love for these who have not yet been able to sustain being liberated by recognition. Yet recognition makes them competent, which liberates them. 117. Love [does not take] anything, for how [(can) it take anything when everything] belongs to it? It does not [say ‘This is mine’] or ‘(That) is mine’, [but rather it says] ‘They are thine.’ (Job 41:11, Lk 6:30) 118. Spiritual love is [truly] wine with fragrance; all those who are anointed with it enjoy it. As long as the anointed remain, those (also) enjoy it who stand beside them. (But) if they who are anointed with the Chrism cease evangelizing them (and¹) depart, (then) those who are not anointed (but¹) only stand alongside remain still in their (own) miasma. The Samaritan gave nothing to the wounded (man) except wine with ointment— and he healed the blows, inasmuch as ‘love atones for a multitude of transgressions.’ (¹asyndeton; Lk 10:30-37, Th 24, =Pro 10:12 → I-Pet 4:8) 119. Those whom the woman will beget resemble him whom she loves. If (it is) her husband, they resemble her husband; if it is an adulterer, they resemble the adulterer. Often, if there is (a) woman (who) lays with her husband by compulsion, yet her heart is with the adulterer and she is accustomed to mate with him (also, then) he whom she bears in giving birth resembles the adulterer. Yet you who are with the Son of God— love not the world but rather love the Lord, so that those who shall be begotten not come to resemble the world, but rather will come to resemble the Lord. (Ex 20:14, Lev 20:10, II-Sam 11:1-5 12:1-10, 77
