Similitude 9.25.1Those who believed from the eighth mountain, where there were many springs and all the Lord’s creation drank from the springs, are like this:

Similitude 9.25.2apostles and teachers who proclaimed throughout the whole world, and those who taught the Lord’s word reverently and purely, appropriating absolutely nothing for wicked desire, but always walking in righteousness and truth, just as they received the Holy Spirit. Such people, therefore, have their passage with the angels.
