Chapter 33


1

When I had dwelt in my father's house for seven days teaching the word of life unto the believers, I went unto my father as he sat in his outer court with his servants attending to affairs of state.

2

And when he would hear me, I said unto him, Father, where is the God who created heaven and earth and all the hosts of them?

3

My father Terah answered me and said, Behold, my son, those gods who created all things are here with us in the house.

4

My lord, show them to me I pray thee, I exclaimed.

5

Whereupon my father Terah led me unto a chamber in the center of his house wherein were twelve great idol gods and numerous smaller ones.

6

And my father said unto me, Behold, my son, these twelve great ones are rulers among the gods and this largest one is ruler above all and these others were their assistants in creating all things.

7

And my father Terah bowed down and worshiped before his idol gods and we departed from them.
