Book of Aph, Son of Jehovih Chapter XI, Chapter XII<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 11<\/span><\/p>\n

1. The Council of Hored being still in session, God, that is, Eolait, ascended the throne.
\nAnd the light of Jehovih fell upon God, so that he was well nigh obscured from sight, and
\nthe voice of Jehovih spake, saying:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Hear ye My voice; as by My Presence and of Mine Own Self I made each self, and
\ngave thereto power of words, so am I in Light manifest by soul words to My etherean
\nhosts. As to the Lords of earth, ye have provided ashars, and above them asaphs,<\/span>
\nand betwixt all My kingdoms allotted messengers, so shall ye also provide for
\nbarbarians, familiar spirits, who shall be subject to the order of the ashars and their Lords.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. I create alive all men, whether I’hins or barbarians, and your labor shall be not alone
\nwith My chosen, whom it is easy to save, but with those also who know Me not, and
\nknow not My es worlds. For, beside those destroyed by the flood, behold the earth is still
\ncovered over with men, women and children.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. In the time of Aph ye received volunteers from Osi, in etherea; give them this matter in
\nhand.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. This was done, and they were divided up into groups, and the corporeans having been
\nalready numbered by the angels of heaven, the ethereans were distributed accordingly.
\nAnd these again selected and apportioned familiar spirits to abide with the barbarians.
\nAnd these familiar spirits were the fathers and mothers and friends who had recently died,
\nbut still sojourned in the first resurrection. So the officers provided places on earth for
\nthese spirits, and persuaded them to reappear before mortals in order to prove continued
\nlife; but the officers never showed themselves.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Jehovih hath said: Provide ye the way, but cause the familiars to do the labor. Neither
\nshall ye make a familiar of the spirit of a young man or a young woman, lest they become
\nfetals.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. So it came to pass that a new department of heaven and earth was opened and set on
\nfoot during the absence of Neph, and in one year the matter was in prosperity.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. At the end of one year God returned from the Hautuon Colony, bringing with him five
\nmillions of volunteers, being of the third resurrection. And, it being known in Hored
\nwhen he would return, a great concourse of angels gathered together to receive him in
\nhonor, and to welcome the volunteers.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. So that, when God’s etherean star descended, the Vice-God, Eolait, proclaimed a
\nrecreation of ten days, which was to follow immediately after God should ascend the
\nthrone and regain his presence. And so, whilst the es’enaurs were singing, the star
\nalighted, and the marshals and hosts of honor proceeded to the places, and received
\nGod, who at once ascended to the throne and saluted Eolait, Son of Jehovih, saying:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. By Thy Will and Power, O Jehovih, Thy Son rejoiceth in the time of this proceeding.
\nEolait said: Welcome, God of heaven and earth. And he saluted with the sign of Jehovih’s
\nname, and was answered in like manner.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. Without more ceremony, he took off the triangle of the Gods and placed it on God’s
\nneck, saying: In Jehovih’s name, receive thou the gift of the ancient Gods.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. Hardly had this been accomplished when the ship-star alighted in the floor of the
\nCongress, before the Council, and near the altar of Jehovih; and the five millions
\nof volunteers alighted, amidst the applause of the many millions assembled.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. God, being reinstated, said: Let the marshals proclaim ten days of recreation. For we
\nshall account to our especial loves how we found matters in Hautuon, and of the power of
\nJehovih manifested.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 12<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. The voice of Jehovih spake through God, saying: Because a new heaven is established,
\nand because the old hath been raised up, let signs be manifested, whereby men and angels
\nin after times may know what hath happened. For it shall come to pass in later days that<\/span>
\nmen and angels may forget the flood and the purging of the earth. Bethink ye, O Gods and
\nGoddesses, what shall be done?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Eolait spoke in behalf of the Council, saying: What shall we do, O Jehovih? And
\nJehovih answered, saying: Because I come near the earth in its early days, and farther off
\nas it groweth older, men will say: Alas, the folly of the ancients! For I gave fear and faith
\nas an heritage when men were weak in judgment; but, with the growth of wisdom, I take
\naway fear and the substance of things not proven to the judgment.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Jehovih said: In kosmon, men and angels shall ask for proofs. One will say: How is it
\npossible to relate the words spoken in the olden times? Another will say: How can it be
\nproven that the old heaven was taken away?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Hear, therefore, the words of your Creator; and when one saith: Behold, in those days
\nfew men had the gift of words and speech, answer ye him, saying: Even so was it
\nin heaven, and because they had not words, they could not be made to understand.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. And another shall say: The Creator ruleth in large matters, but not in the small; and
\nanother shall say: Because the angels come in kosmon, so could they in the olden time.
\nAnd ye shall answer them, saying: Who knoweth the plan for an earthquake, whether it be
\nsmall or large before Jehovih? Is He not ever present? and do not certain conditions bring
\ncertain results? And they will answer: Yea.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Say ye: Give, then, a name to the Highest Cause beyond all research; and they will say:
\nBy the ancients called Jehovih. And they shall perceive that they have entangled
\nthemselves in a net. For if the condition of ignorance on earth begot ignorance in heaven,
\nhow could the light of heaven come afterward to the earth save from above? Since, then,
\nthe light of heaven came from above, who should invent the wisdom of a flood to come
\nupon the speech of nations?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Give them, therefore, words in heaven and words on earth which are of matters of this
\nnature, and make the sounds thereof sacred, so that it shall be proven in Jaffeth and Shem,
\nand Ham, and Guatama, and in the heavens thereunto belonging. The voice of Jehovih
\nceased.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. God said: Thou art All Wisdom, O Jehovih! Now have I a place for the new volunteers
\ncome from etherea. For this shall be their matter and business with the familiars who
\ndwell with the barbarians. So, accordingly, were they allotted. And they were enjoined to
\nsing to mortals the song of the flood; and they thus established its history to endure
\nforever on earth.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
