About this work

Author: Unknown

XVIII. And the commander-in-chief

‹ Section 17 Section 19 ›

said

:

Come

hither

,

all

holy

one

,

and

I

will

show

thee

where

the

angelic

and

archangelic

form

is

chastised

.

She

proceeded

and

saw

them

lying

in

the

fire

and

the

sleepless

worm

gnawed

them

:

and

the

all

holy

one

said

:

Who

are

these

,

and

what

is

their

sin

?

And

the

commander

-

in

-

chief

said

:

These

,

all

holy

one

,

are

they

who

possessed

the

archangelic

and

apostolic

form

:

hearken

,

all

holy

one

,

concerning

this

:

on

earth

they

were

called

patriarchs

and

bishops

,

and

they

were

not

worthy

of

their

name

:

on

earth

they

heard

‘

Bless

(

the

Lord

)

ye

saints

,

’

and

in

heaven

they

were

not

called

saints

,

because

they

did

not

act

as

bearers

of

the

archangelic

form

:

and

for

this

cause

they

are

thus

chastised

here

.
