745. 'Peace' on the other hand is the power of Saba%u014dth, the Good, which is in thee, -- he who hath baptized and hath forgiven the race of men, -- and it hath made them at peace with the sons of the Light. 6. And moreover as thy power hath said through David: 'Truth sprouted forth out of the earth,'--that is the power of Saba%u014dth, the Good, which sprouted forth out of Mary, thy mother, the dweller on earth. 7. 'Righteousness,' which 'looked down from heaven,' on the other hand is the spirit in the height who hath brought all mysteries of the height and given them to the race of men; and they have become righteous and good, and have inherited the Light-kingdom.\8. And it came to pass, when Jesus had heard Mary speak these words, that he said: \said, Mary, inheritress of the Light.\9. And Mary, the mother of Jesus, again came forward, fell down at his feet, kissed them and said: \I may once more speak the solution of these words. 'Grace and truth met together,'--it is I, Mary, thy mother, and Elizabeth, mother of John, whom I have met. 'Grace' then is the power of Saba%u014dth in me, which went forth out of me, which thou art. 10. Thou hast had mercy on the whole race of men. 'Truth' on the other hand is the power in Elizabeth, which is John, who did come and hath made proclamation concerning the way of Truth, which thou art, -- who hath made proclamation before thee. 11. And again, 'Grace and truth met together,'--that is thou, my Lord, thou who didst meet John on the day when thou hadst to receive the baptism. 12. And again thou and John are 'Righteousness and peace kissed each other.'--'Truth hath sprouted forth out of the earth, and righteousness looked down from heaven,'--this is, during the time when thou didst minister unto thyself, thou didst have the form of Gabri%u0113l, thou didst look down upon me from heaven and speak with me. 13. And when thou hadst spoken with me, thou didst sprout up in me, -- that is the 'truth,' that is the power of Saba%u014dth, the Good, which is in thy material body, that is the 'truth' which 'sprouted up out of the earth.'\14. It came to pass then, when Jesus had heard his mother Mary speak these words, that he said: \light-power hath prophesied aforetime through the prophet David.\
