(32) How then should a Soul come before Christ, and pray for a living Invocator, whereas Christ himself does stand and invite Men, and is himself the Atonement of the Anger in the Father? For the Father has given Men to the Son, as himself witnesses; They were thine, and thou has given them to me, and I will that they be with me, and see my Glory which thou hast given me.

(5) And when Jesus had said this, he said: " iaphtha iaphtha mounaēr mounaēr ermanouēr ermanouēr ." That is: "O father of all fatherhood of the boundless [spaces], hear me for the sake of my disciples whom I have led before thee, that they may have faith in all the words of thy truth, and grant all for which I shall invoke thee; for I know the name of the father of the Treasury of the Light."

(11) Wherefore also the apostle designates as "the express image (karakthra) of the glory of the Father " the Son, who taught the truth respecting God, and expressed the fact that the Almighty is the one and only God and Father, "whom no man knoweth but the Son, and he to whom the Son shall reveal Him." That God is one is intimated by those "who seek the face of the God of Jacob;" whom being the only God, our Saviour and God characterizes as the Good Father. And "the generation of those that seek Him" is the elect race, devoted to inquiry after knowledge. Wherefore also the apostle says, "I shall profit you nothing, unless I speak to you, either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophecy, or by doctrine."
