The Disciples rejoiced with a great joy because their sins had been remitted, their iniquities covered, and their names inscribed as heirs of the Kingdom of Light; for they had been baptised in the Waters of Life from the Seven Virgins of Treasure, and they had received the sacred and holy seal. And it came to pass that Jesus continued to speak and said unto his disciples :
The Baptism of Fire.-" Bring me branches of vine, that you may receive the baptism of fire."
And the disciples brought him branches of vine which he placed upon the incense: he put myrrh upon it, he added incense of Lebanon, lentisk of mastic, Spikenard, Juniper flowers, turpentine and gum. He spread on the place of the offering a linen cloth, and placed thereon a cup of wine, and pieces of bread equal in number to his disciples, and they were again clothed in linen garments and crowned with the herb called vervain of Osiris, and He put in their mouths the herb called cynocephalus, and in their two hands the number of the Seven Voices which was 9,879. He also gave into their hands the herb marigold. He put bunches of the same flowers beneath their feet and placed before them the aromatic incense which he had prepared. He gave them commandment to place their feet each by the side of his neighbors'. And He stood on the other side of the Incense and sealed them with this seal:
of which the name is THEZAEEZ and the interpretation ZOZAEZ. Jesus turned himself to the Four Quarters with his Disciples and prayed saying :
" Hear me, oh my Father, Father of all Paternity, Infinite Light, render these my disciples. worthy to receive the Baptism of Fire, forgive their sins, purify the iniquities which they have committed consciously or unconsciously, those which they have committed from their childhood even unto this day, their thoughtless words, their evil speech, their false witness, their thefts, their lies, their deceitful calumnies, their fornications, their adulteries, their covetousness, their avarice, and all the sins that they may have committed, efface them, purify them from them, and let the ZOROKOTHORA come in secret and bring them. the Water of the Baptism of Fire of the Virgin of Treasure: Hear me, oh my Father; I invoke thy Incorruptible Names hidden in the Aeons for ever. AZARAKAZA AAMATHKRATITATH IOIOIO ZAMEN ZAMEN ZAMEN IAOTH lAOTH IAOTH PHAOPH PHAOPH PHAOPH KHIOEPHOZPE KHENOBINYTH ZARLAI LAZARLAI LAIZAI, AMEN AMEN; ZAZIZAYAH NEBEOYNISPH PHAMOY PHAMOY PHAMOY AMOYNAI AMOYNAI AMOYNAI AMEN AMEN AMEN ZAZAZAZI ETAZAZA ZOTHAZAZAZA. Hear me, my Father, Father of all paternities, Infinite Light, I invoke thy Incorruptible Name which is in the Aeon of Light that ZOROKOTHORA should send the Water o the Fiery Baptism from the Virgin of Light to the end that I may baptize my disciples. Hear me again, oh my Father, Father of all Paternity, Infinite Light, that the Virgin of Light may come, that she may baptize my disciples with Fire, that she may pardon their sins, purify their iniquities, for I invoke thy Incorruptible Name which is ZOTHOOZA THOITHAZAZZAOTH AMEN AMEN AMEN. Hear me also, Oh Virgin of Light, oh Judge of Truth, forgive the sins of my disciples; and if, oh my Father, thou blottest out their iniquities, may they be written down heirs of the Kingdom of Light, and to this end perform a miracle upon these censers of sweet smelling perfume."
And in a moment the miracle occurred. And Jesus baptised His disciples and gave them sacrifice, and he sealed their foreheads with the seal of the Virgin of Light. And the disciples rejoiced that they had received the baptism of Fire, and the Seal for the remission of sins, and their names were inscribed as heirs of the Kingdom of Light. Behold the Seal:
And it came to pass that Jesus said unto his Disciples: "Now you, having received the baptism of water and the baptism of Fire, come unto me that you may receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit."
Baptism of the Holy Spirit.-He placed the perfumes of the baptism of the Spirit in their places, and over them branches of olive, of juniper, and cinnamon, of dried saffron, mastic gum, cinnamum, myrrh, and balm with honey. He put two cups of wine to the right and left of the perfume, besides loaves of bread, equal in number to his disciples. Jesus marked his disciples with this seal:
the name of which is ZAKZOZA and the interpretation THOZONOZ. And it came to pass when they were marked with the seal, Jesus standing behind the perfumes, disposed his disciples in front of them; they were clothed in garments of linen; the number of the mystery of the seven Voices was in their two hands, it is 9,879. Jesus spake and said, "Hear me, oh my Father, Father .of all Paternity, Infinite Light, I invoke thee by the Incorruptible names of the Aeon of Light ZAZAZAOY, OTHZAZOTH, THOZAXAZOTH, KENOYBINYE, ATHAEEY, OZEllZAEOZ, KROMBLATH. Hear me, oh my Father, Father of all Paternities, Infinite Light, for I invoke the Incorruptible names of the Aeon of Light. Take away the sins of my disciples, cleanse them from the iniquities which they have committed knowingly or unknowingly, the evil which they have committed from their infancy even unto this day; write their names in the Book of the Inheritance of the Kingdom of Light. If Thou takest away their sins, if Thou purifiest their iniquities, if Thou writest their names in the book of the inheritance of the Kingdom of Light, grant, oh my Father, a miracle."
And even as he spoke the miracle took place upon the offering. And he baptised all his disciples with the baptism of the Holy Spirit. They partook of the offering, and he marked their foreheads with the seal of the Seven Virgins of Light to the end that their names should be written in the inheritance of the Kingdom of Light. And the Disciples rejoiced with a great joy, that they had received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the Seal which took away sin and purified iniquity, for their names had been written in the Inheritance of the Kingdom of Light.
Behold the seal:
And when Jesus had performed this mystery, all his disciples stood clothed in garments of linen, crowned with morsyne, a branch of the Cretan Cynocephalus upon their mouths, and mugwort in their two hands. Their feet were placed one against the other, and they turned towards the four quarters of the World. And it came about that Jesus disposed the perfumes in the manner necessary for the performance of the mystery of the deliverance of his disciples from the evil desires of the Arkhons. He placed a censer upon the androsace. He took branches of vine, juniper, cinnamon-leaves, and sweet flag, also loadstone, agate stone, and incense. He clothed his disciples in garments of linen, he crowned them with mugwort, and placed incense in their mouths; he put the number of the First Amen into one of their hands, and he placed their feet, side by side standing before the perfumes. Jesus marked his disciples with this seal:
of which the true name is ZEZEOIAZOZ and the interpretation is ZOZOZAI. When Jesus had marked his disciples with this seal, he took his place on the other side of the perfumes and he prayed, saying :-" Hear me, oh my Father, Father of all Paternities, Infinite Light, for I invoke thee in the incorruptible names of the Aeon of Light NERETER, ZOPHONER, ZOILTHOZOYBAO, XOYBAO, AMEN, AMEN, AMEN. Hear me, oh! my Father, may the Sabaoth Adamos and all the Arkhons come forth and take away the iniquities of my disciples." When he had uttered these words, having tur:ned unto the four quarters of the World with his disciples, he imprinted upon them the mark of the Second Amen which is this:
0f which the true name is ZALOZAKOZ, and the interpretation ZKHOZOZO. And when Jesus had finished; even at that ,moment the Arkhons took away their iniquities from the disciples; and these rejoiced with a great joy that the iniquity of the Arkhons had ceased in them. And when the iniquity of the Arkhons no longer existed in them, the disciples who followed Jesus became immortal in all the places that they entered. Jesus said unto his disciples: " I will give you the word of Power in all places of which I have given you the mystery, the baptisms, the offerings, the seals, the Paralemptor, and the number, the Names of Truth and the Words of Power, also the manner in which it is necessary to invoke them so that you may enter into their hidden places. I will give you the Words of Power and the numbers. Hear me now in order that I may speak unto you of the going forth of your soul, since I have revealed these mysteries, their seals, and their numbers. When thou goest forth from thy body and performest the mysteries of all the Aeons and those which are in them, they shall fly before you until you come to the Six Great Aeons. They shall fly to the west and to the left hand. When you have come to the Six Aeons you will be stopped until you have received the mystery of the remission of sins, for this is the great mystery which is in the Aeon of the Holy of Holies, and giveth health to the soul. He who has received this mystery shall surpass all gods and all lords and all Aeons which are the Twelve Aeons of the Invisible God, because this is the Great Mystery of the Immutable One who is in the Aeon of the Holy of Holies. This is why all men who believe in the Son of Light must receive the mystery of the remission of sins. . . . And when all the Aeons have fled before you the Light of the Purifying Aeon will purify the twelfth Aeon, so that all thy ways may be illuminated, and the Aeon of Light may manifest, that you may behold the heavens from afar and the Paths of Light. . . . When you have received these mysteries, and you go hither and thither, having gone forth from the body you will become a pure Light, and you will journey even unto the Aeon of Light."
