About this reading layout
Source wording, punctuation, paragraph boundaries and supplied line breaks are retained. Long prose also has editorial reading breaks at sentence boundaries. Substantial passages already enclosed in double quotation marks are set apart; this does not identify their source or establish a connection.
These added breaks are reading aids, not claims about the original manuscript’s layout. Poetry is lineated only where the downloaded text supplies line breaks. References and edition notes remain with their text.
Chapter 2
1. In what way did the Lord preach when he lived in the flesh and after he revealed himself to be Son of God?
2. He dwelt in this place where you abide, discoursing of the law of natural things, which I, however, I call “death.”
3. Rheginos, the Son of God was the Son of Man. He took both to himself, having humanity and divinity.
4. Consequently, on the one hand he could banish death as the Son of God, and on the other hand as the Son of Man he brought the restoration of the Fullness.
5. That was because his origin was from above, as a seed of truth, before (his lower) structure came into existence.
6. In this (lower structure) many dominions and divinities came to be.
