The Disciples Rest
The Savior said to his disciples: “Brothers, the time has now arrived for us to stop our work and stand at rest, because whoever stands at rest will rest forever. I say to you, transcend always [...] temporality [...]. [I say] to you, [...] fear [not those ...] you. I [say to you], anger is fearsome [and whoever] provokes anger is a [fearsome person]. Because, however, you have [been able to suffer], it might come forth from [you ...]. The people have accepted these sayings concerning anger with fear and trembling. Anger appointed archons over them, because no one can avoid anger. When I came, however, I opened a path and instructed people concerning the way of crossing over for the elect and solitary, those who have known the Father and who have been faithful to truth, and you offered up praise.
