that Moses called upon God saying tell me I pray thee why these things are so? and by what thou madest them? And behold the glory of God was upon Moses so that Moses stood in the presence of God And he talked with Moses face to face and the Lord God said unto Moses, for mine own purpose have I made these things. Here is wisdom, and it remainethe in me. And by the word of my power have I created them, which is mine only begotten Son, who is full of grace and truth: And worlds without number have I created; and I also created them for mine own purpose; and by the Son I created them, which is mine only begotten. And the first man, of all men have I called Adam, which is many. But only an account of this earth, and the inhabitants thereof, give I unto you: For behold there are many worlds which have passed away [p. [43]]
