Divine Light Appears in the Darkness — Two Great Prayers From Second Allogenes (Codex Tchacos Allogenes, Gnostic Scripture)
A few years back I posted at Medium these prayers using the Marvin Meyer translation of 2nd Allogenes. Below are the same prayers but now making use of the new translation by Samuel Zinner @ https://othergospels.com/2allogenes
And they went out, and scaled a mountain called Tabor. They bent their knees and prayed, saying:
O Lord God,
you who are superior to all of the mighty aeons,
you who are without beginning or end,
dispatch to us a spirit of knowledge for the disclosure of mysteries,
so that we can know ourselves,
the place from which we have come,
the place to which we are going,
and what we should observe so that we would live.
The Stranger then cried out and raised his voice, saying:
O God, you who dwell in the mighty aeons,
listen to my voice, show me pity, and rescue me from every evil.
Look down on me, and listen to me while I dwell in this isolated place.
Now, therefore, may an unspeakable light shine on me.
