It came to pass then again after all these words, that Jesus continued in the discourse and said unto his disciples: Hearken, therefore, that I may discourse with you concerning the last Helper.

2The last Helper is in the midst of the Treasury of the Light, and he is a great light-power, and there is no measure to the light in which he is. And he surroundeth all the regions of the Treasury of the Light and all the regions of the inheritances of the Light.

3And the regions which are beyond the Helpers are indescribable, and there is neither type nor similitude in this world with which they can be compared, for their glory is great and exalted above all words.

4For which cause have I said unto you aforetime: Eye hath not seen, and ear hath not heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which the Light hath prepared for them that love his mysteries.
