Chapter 1

1

The words of Ahyeh Asher Ahyeh^a which He spake unto Moses at a time when Moses was caught up into an exceeding high mountain;

2

And he saw The Creator^a face to face, and he talked with Him;

3

And Ruach Hakodesh^a was upon Moses; therefore, Moses could endure the Presence^b.

4

¶ And The Creator spake unto Moses, saying: Behold, I AM^a: YHVH Elohim^b Shaddai^c,

5

And Elolaum^a is my name, for I am Aleph Tav^b without beginning of days or end of years; and is not this endless?

6

¶ And behold, thou art my son; wherefore, look; and I will show thee the workmanship of mine hands,

7

But not all; for my works are without end, and also my words, for they never cease;

8

Wherefore, no one can behold all my works except they behold all my Glory^a, yea which is to behold my crown^b;

9

And no man nor woman can behold all my glory, or my crown and afterwards remain in the flesh on the earth.

10

¶ And I have a work^a for thee, Moses, my son; and thou art in the similitude of the Yachad Yachid Echad^b;

11

And the Yachad is the Messiah^a of the world forever and ever, full of Grace^b and truth;

12

But there is no creator beside me; and all things are present with me, for I know them all.

13

¶ And now, behold, this one thing I show unto thee, Moses, my son; for thou art in the world, and now I show it unto thee.

14

¶ And it came to pass that Moses looked and beheld the world upon which he was created.

15

And as Moses beheld the world, and the ends thereof, and all the children of man, which are and which were created, of the same he greatly marveled and wondered.

16

And The Presence^a of Elohim^b withdrew from Moses, that His Glory^c was not upon Moses, and Moses was left unto himself;

17

And as Moses was left unto himself, he fell unto the earth.

18

¶ And it came to pass that it was for the space of many hours before Moses did again receive his natural strength like unto man;

19

And Moses said unto himself: Now, for this cause I know that man is nothing, which thing I never had supposed;

20

But now mine eyes have beheld The Creator^a, but not my natural but my spiritual eyes; for my natural eyes could not have beheld, for I should have withered and died in His presence;

21

But His Glory^a was upon me, and I beheld The Presence^b, for I was transfigured before The Creator.

22

¶ And now it came to pass that as Moses had said these words, behold, the Adversary^a came tempting him, saying: Moses, son of man^b, worship me.

23

And it came to pass that Moses looked upon the Adversary and said: Who art thou?

24

For behold, I am a son of Elohim^a in the similitude of the Yachad^b; and where is thy glory, that I should worship thee?

25

For behold, I could not look upon The Creator except The Presence should come upon me, and I were transfigured before Him.

26

But I can look upon thee in the natural man; is it not so surely?

27

Blessed be the name of my Creator, for The Glory of Elohim hath not altogether withdrawn from me; or else, where is thy glory?

28

For it is darkness unto me, and I can judge between the Accuser^a and Elohim^b.

29

For The Creator said unto me: I have a work for thee; and also: There is no creator beside me.

30

Get thee hence, Accuser; deceive me not;

31

For The Creator said unto me: Thou art after the similitude of the Yachad Yachid Echad.

32

And He also gave unto me teshuvah^a when He called unto me out of the burning bush, saying: Call upon Elohim in the name of the Yachad^b, and worship The Creator.

33

¶ And again, Moses said: I will not cease to call upon The Creator^a.

34

I have other things to inquire of Him; for The Glory of Elohim^a has been upon me, and it is glory unto me; wherefore, I can judge between The Creator and thee.

35

Depart hence, thou Satan, thou Adversary, thou Accuser!

36

¶ And now, when Moses had said these words, the Adversary cried with a loud voice, and went upon the earth, and commanded, saying: I am Yachad Yachid Echad^a, worship me!

37

¶ And it came to pass that Moses began to fear exceedingly; and as he began to fear, he saw the bitterness of Sheol^a;

38

Nevertheless, calling upon The Creator, Moses received strength.

39

And Moses commanded, saying: Depart hence, Satan; for this one, Ahyeh Asher Ahyeh, only will I worship, which is given me by Ruach HaKodesh^a.

40

¶ And now, the Adversary began to tremble, and the earth shook.

41

And Moses received strength and called upon the Creator in the name of the Yachad, saying to the Adversary: Depart hence in the name of Yachad Yachid Echad!

42

¶ And it came to pass that this Satan cried with a loud voice, with weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth, and departed hence, yea, from the presence of Moses, that he beheld him not.

43

¶ And it came to pass that when the Adversary departed from the presence of Moses, that Moses lifted up his eyes unto heaven, being filled by The Glory of Elohim^a, which beareth record of Avinu^b and of Yachad;

44

And calling upon the name of the Creator, he beheld again The Presence^a; for it rested upon him,

45

And he heard The Voice^a, saying: Blessed art thou, Moses, for I, Elohim Shaddai^b have chosen thee;

46

And thou shalt be made stronger than many waters; for they shall obey thy decree even as if thou^a wert the Creator.

47

¶ And lo, I am with thee, even unto the end of thy days; for thou shalt deliver my people from bondage, even Israel^a, my chosen peoples.
