Iohannes said, I am not the Christ, and ye said to me, It is written in the Scripture that if the Christ should come, he coming, cometh Helias before him and prepareth his road. But I, ye having said to me these (things) I said to you, Came indeed Helias, and he prepared everything according as it is written, and they did to him as they are willing (to do). And having known that ye did not understand that I said to you [13^b] concerning the soul of Helias which is bound in Iohannes the baptist, I answered to you in the word in boldness of face with face, If ye are willing to receive (it) Iohannes the baptist, he is Helias, he whom I said that he cometh. Added also Jesus in the word, said he, It happened therefore after these (things), by the command of the First Mystery I looked also down upon the World of the mankind I found Maria this whom they are wont to call my mother according to the body of the matter. I spake also with her according to the form of Gabriel, and she having turned herself unto the Height unto me I cast in unto her the first power that which I took from the Barbelo, [14^a] namely, the body which I wear in the Height and in the place (Coptic) of the soul I cast in unto her the power, that which I took from the great Sabaoth, the good, this who becometh in the Place of the Right (hand), and the twelve powers of the twelve Saviours of the Treasury of the Light, those which I took from the twelve Deacons which (are) in the Middle, I cast them unto the Sphere of the Rulers, and the Dekan of the Rulers with their Ministrants, they were thinking that souls they were of the Rulers, and brought them the Ministrants, I bound them in the body of your mother. And when your time was finished they produced you in [14^b] the World, there not being soul of the Rulers in you; and ye took your part out of the power, this which breathed in unto the Confusion the last Helper, this (power) which is mixed with all the Invisibles with all the Rulers, with all the Aeons, once simply being mixed in the World of the corruption which is the Confusion: this (power) which I brought out of me from at first, I cast it in unto the First precept, and the First precept cast a part from it in unto the great Light, and the great Light cast a part from that which he received in unto the five Helpers, and the last Helper received a part from that which he received he cast it in unto the Confusion, [15^a] and it became in all (things) those which become in the Confusion, according as I have already said to you. These therefore Jesus is saying to his disciples upon the mountain of the Olives.
