135. And Jesus had not told his disciples of what type are the five Helpers, nor into what region they are brought; nor had he told them how the great Light hath expanded itself, nor into what region it hath been brought; nor had he told them of the five Impressions, nor as to the First Commandment, into what region they have been brought. But he had discoursed with them generally, teaching that they exist, but he had not told them their expansion and the order of their regions, how they are. For this cause they have not known that there were also other regions within that mystery.6. And he had not told his disciples: %u201cI have gone forth out of such and such regions until I entered into that mystery, and until I went forth out of it%u201d; but, in teaching them, he said to them: %u201cI am come forth from that mystery.%u201d For this cause then they thought of that mystery, that it is the completion of completions, and that it is the head of the universe and that it is the total Fulness. For Jesus had said to his disciples: %u201cThat mystery surroundeth that universe of which I have spoken unto you from the day when I met with you even unto this day.%u201d For this cause then the disciples thought there is nothing within that mystery.CHAPTER 21. It came to pass then, when the disciples were sitting together on the Mount of Olives, speaking of these words and rejoicing in great joy, and exulting exceedingly and saying one to another: %u201cBlessed are we before all men who are on the earth, because the Saviour hath revealed this unto us, and we have received the fulness and the total completion,%u201d -- they said this to one another, while Jesus sat a little removed from them.2. And it came to pass then, on the fifteenth day of the moon in the month Tybi[approximately January 15th %u2013 of the Gregorian Calendar], which is the day on which the moon is full, on that day then, when the sun had come forth in his going, that there came forth behind him a great light-power shining most exceedingly, and there was no measure to the light conjoined with it. For it came out of the Light of lights, and it came out of the Last Mystery, which is the four-and-twentieth mystery, from within without--those which are in the orders of the second space of the First Mystery. And that lightpower came down over Jesus and surrounded him entirely, while he was seated removed from his disciples, and he had shone most exceedingly, and there was no measure for the light which was on him.3. And the disciples had not seen Jesus because of the great light in which he was, or which was about him; for their eyes were darkened because of the great light in which he was.
