From them [the Angels] I heard all things, and understood what I saw; that which will not take place in this generation [Race], but in a generation which is to succeed at a distant period [the 6th and 7th Races] on account of the elect [the Initiates].(87) Again, it is said with regard to the judgment of those who, when they have learned “every secret of the angels,” reveal them, that: They have discovered secrets, and _they are_ those who have been judged; but not thou, my son [Noah] ... thou art pure and good and _free_ from the reproach of _discovering_ [revealing] secrets.(88) But there are those in our century, who, having “discovered secrets” unaided and owing to their own learning and acuteness only, and who being, nevertheless, honest and straightforward men, undismayed by threats or warning since they have never pledged themselves to secresy, feel quite startled at such revelations. One of these is the learned author and discoverer of one “Key to the Hebrew‐Egyptian Mystery.” As he says, there are “some strange features connected with the promulgation and condition” of the _Bible_. Those who compiled this Book were men as we are. They knew, saw, handled and realized, through the key measure,(89) the _law_ of the living, ever‐active God.(90) They needed no faith that He was, that He worked, planned, and accomplished, as a mighty mechanic and architect.(91) What was it, then, that reserved to them alone this knowledge, while first as men of God, and second as Apostles of Jesus the Christ, they doled out a blinding ritual service, and an empty teaching of _faith_ and no substance as proof, properly coming through the exercise of just those senses which the Deity has given all men as the essential means of obtaining any right understanding? _Mystery_ and _parable_, and _dark saying_, and _cloaking_ of the true meanings are the burden of the Testaments, Old and New. Take it that the narratives of the _Bible_ were purposed inventions to deceive the ignorant masses, even while enforcing a most perfect code of moral obligations: How is it possible to justify so great frauds, as part of a Divine economy, when to that economy, the attribute of simple and perfect _truthfulness_ must, in the nature of things, be ascribed? What has, or what by possibility ought mystery to have, with the promulgation of the truths of God?(92)
