in which there is no kingdom; and there is no kingdom in which there is no space, either a greater or lesser kingdom. And unto every kingdom is given a law there are certain bounds <​also​> and conditions also All beings who abiede not in those conditions, are not Justified, for intelligence cleaveth unto inteligence; wisdom receiveth wisdom, truth embraceth truth; virtue loveth virtue; light cleaveth unto light mercy hath compassion on mercy, and claimeth her own; Justice continueth its course and claimeth its own, Judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth upon the throne, and executeth all things <​and all things​> are before him, and all things are round about him, and he is above all things And in all things a is throughout all things, and is round about all things and all things areby him, and of him even god forever and ever.— And again verily i say unto you he hath given a law unto All things by which they move in their seasons; and their courses Are fixed even the courses of the heavens and the earth; which comprehend the earth and <​All​> the plannets, and they give light to each other in their times, and in their courses seasons, in their minnutes in their hours, in their days in their months, in their years. all these are one year with god but not with man. the earth roll upon her wings, and the Sun giveth his light by day and the moon giveth her light by night, and the stars also giveth their light as they roll upon their wings in their glory in the midst of the power of god.
