their return once more within; the stretching forth of their hands establishes them; the hearing of their ears is the intuition in their hearts; the union of their limbs is the regathering of the dispersal of Israel; their self-understanding is their contemplation of the Logos; the writing upon their fingers is the number which has gone forth, even as it is written, "He counteth the number of the Stars and calleth them all by their names." And the whole union was made by the Logos Demiourgos with those who had come out of the turmoil that had been: altogether they became one and the same body, as it has been written, "They have all become one and the same body in this One and Only One." Then this Logos Demiourgos became a mighty God, Lord, Saviour, Christ, King, the Good, Father, Mother.

As for the Prince of the Universe, he who has the triple-power to make alive and to destroy, she ordained the Son Protogennetor after the order of the Triple-Power.
