Letter of Peter to Philip 3

1Then a bright light became visible, and the mountain glowed because of the sight of the one who had become visible, and a voice cried out to them, and said:

2“Pay attention to my words, so that I can speak to you.

3Why are you looking for me?

4I am Jesus Christ, who abides with you continually.”

5The apostles responded, and said:

6“Lord, it would please us to understand the deficiency of the aeons,

7as well as their fullness,

8and how we are held back in this dwelling-place.

9How have we arrived at this place?

10How will we depart?

11[] How do we come to have authority for boldness of speech?

12Why do the powers battle against us?”

13A voice from the light then cried out to them, and said: “You are the ones who testify that I have spoken all of these things to you, but on account of your unfaithfulness, I will repeat (these things).”
