| 25 | C. The Preaching of Philip and Peler. |
| 26 | [Philip and Peter set out to preach the Gospel in Phrygia. By their miracles they cause the people to believe. The priests |
| 27 | attempt to oppose them, but are encircled with a cloud of fire. Peter casts their idol, a golden hawk, into the fire.] |
| 28 | [And Peter took up that idol and cast it] “into it (sc. the fire). Then answered the hawk of gold, saying: |
| 29 | “0 Apostles of the Christ, torment me not but have compassion on me that ye may judge between me and |
| 30 | these sinful men. For I, even 1, was earth! of the earth; and these men removed me: they smelted me, and |
| 31 | fashioned me in this manner and placed me in this temple. They are wont to sacrifice beasts and to mingle |
| 32 | their blood (with wine), while they delude the people, saying that it is | who eat them (the sacrifices) ; whereas |
| 33 | Ⲓ eat not, neither do I drink, nor do I speak with these men. Nay, at the present time also it is not I who |
| 34 | speak, but it is the power which is *with you that causes me to speak with this multitude.” {Now when the |
| 35 | hawk of gold had thus spoken, it fell silent. |
| 36 | But the priests besought the holy Apostles, saying: “We beseech you, O Apostles, bring us out of the fire, |
| 37 | and do not slay us. That which ye shall bid us, we will do.” Philip said unto them: “If ye turn away from |
| 38 | your abominable worship, then say in penitence of heart, Ⲛⲉ believe on Thee, O God, Jesus the Christ ! |
| 39 | Let this cloud of fire depart from ϯⲙ. |
| 40 | And they all cried out: “We believe on Thee, O God, Jesus the Christ.” *And straightway the cloud of |
| 41 | fire departed from them and became as a lake of water white like milk, so that the Apostles marveled. |
| 42 | And the whole multitude was entreating the Apostles to inform them what they should do that they might |
| 43 | live thereby. But Philip caused them to bring him a basket (?) of reeds (?) and laid out the foundations of |
| 44 | the Church. And Philip said unto the gate and to the pillar? which was upon it: “In the Name of Jesus of |
| 45 | Nazareth Who is risen up above the Heavens, (I command you) to remove hence for the building of the house |
| 46 | I i.e. an element in the earth. 2 The gate and the pillar are mentioned in the earlier |
| 47 | part of this work (see the Arabic, ed. Lewis, p. 61). |

| 76 | of the Lord.” *And straightway the gate came in together with the pillar which was upon it and became |
| 77 | (part) of the building in the presence of the whole multitude; and no sound of it was heard at all. |
| 78 | ϯⲇ Philip turned himself unto the multitudes and said unto them: “Lo, we will build the house of the |
| 79 | Lord. Let the children who are virgins come to work upon the house of the Lord: after that, let us all work.” |
| 80 | And the whole multitude, men and women, all came to work upon the house of the Lord. |
| 81 | Now the Apostles were in the house of Karron,! the ruler of the city, rejoicing at the faith of ⲉ whole |
| 82 | multitude. At that time the Savior took the form of a man of light and came and spake unto them: “Hail, |
| 83 | Peter and Philip, my honored Apostles! {See ye not the multitudes which believe ? Now therefore go forth |
| 84 | unto them that ye may teach them the word of life. Only be not neglectful. Whatsoever ye shall ask, I |
| 85 | will give it unto you, My peace be with you at all times.” And when Jesus had said these things unto them, |
| 86 | being in the form of a man of light, He went up into the Heavens in glory. |
| 87 | Then the faces of Peter and Philip, “the holy Apostles, shone with the glory of Jesus which He had revealed |
| 88 | unto them. And when they came forth, the whole multitude fell at the Apostles’ feet and worshiped them. |
| 89 | But the Apostles raised them up and taught them, declaring unto them the faith of the Lord Jesus the Christ |
| 90 | and (exhorting them) fto depart from their former sins. And all the multitudes pressed upon the Apostles |
| 91 | desiring to receive blessing at their hands, especially when they saw the glory of Our Lord Jesus the Christ |
| 92 | which surrounded them. |
| 93 | Now there was also a man, possessed by a demon, who cried out with *a loud voice, saying: “I beseech |
| 94 | you, holy Apostles of Christ, do not torment me. 1 will come out of him.” Then the demon cast the man upon |
| 95 | the ground, and after that came out of him. But Peter and Philip commanded the demon not to return unto |
| 96 | him for ever. Then the man who was cured cast himself down at the Apostles’ feet and began to kiss them. |
| 97 | Now Philip and Peter took the multitude to the waters and baptized them in the Name of the Father, and |
| 98 | of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. And the Apostles said to the multitude: Ⲧⲟ, the Lord hath forgiven |
