And Adam said to Seth, 'Hear, my son Seth, that I may relate to thee what I heard and

2saw after your mother and I had been driven out of paradise. When we were at prayer, there

3came to me Michael the archangel, a messenger of God. And I saw a chariot like the wind and its wheels were fiery and I was caught up into the Paradise of righteousness, and I saw the Lord sitting and his face was flaming fire that could not be endured. And many thousands of angels were on the right and the left of that chariot.
