(5) And against the angels whom He had sent upon the earth, He was exceedingly wroth, and He gave commandment to root them out of all their dominion, and He bade us to bind them in the depths of the earth, and behold they are bound in the midst of them, and are (kept) separate.

(78) Or dost thou suppose, that the Word in Daniel is nothing, concerning the Angel Gabriel, who said; that the Prince in Persia withstood him one and twenty Days, and that our Prince Michael came to help him? Thereby it may be seen how the Princes and Throne-Angels strive against the Kingdom of the fierce Wrath, and assist Men; the Cause whereof is this, the Devil awakens the Anger against Men; and the Angels of God (viz. the Throne-Princes) keep it back, because God yet wills not Evil.

(3) And great clouds of light descend, and other clouds of light come down on them from the great eternal realms. Abrasax and Sablo and Gamaliel descend and bring those people out of the fire and the wrath, and take them above the eternal realms and the rulers of the powers, and take them away . . . there with the holy angels and the eternal beings. The people will be like those angels, for they are not strangers to them. But they work with the imperishable seed.
