20. Not far from these three celestial portals had been built the palace of god, the ruler of these terrestrial humans and of those who had travelled from afar, the celestial sons, the guardian angels.
21. In his palace, god ruled over the three human lineages created by him and over his following, the celestial sons.
22. He was immortal, ancient and of giant size like the celestial sons.
23. In the palace of god, there appeared to Jmmanuel two very tall men, the likes of whom he had never seen on Earth.
24. Their faces shone like the sun, and their eyes looked like burning torches. From their mouths issued fire. Their clothing resembled a covering of foam, and their arms were like golden wings.
25. They inhabited an environment of their own, because the air of this earthly world would have been fatal for them.
26. These two men from the constellation of the seven stars were venerable teachers, and they were together with two smaller men who said that they were from Baawi.
27. They said: "People have come from the heavens to Earth, and other people have been lifted from Earth into the heavens; the people coming from the heavens remained on Earth for a long time, and they created the intelligent human lineages.
28. "Behold, humans begotten by the celestial sons were different in a unique way from other people on Earth.
29. "They were not like Earth humans but like the children of the celestial angels, and of a different kind.
30. "Their bodies were white as snow and red as the rose blossom, their hair at the top of the head white as wool and their eyes beautiful.
31. "Earth humans will now retain their inherited beauty and propagate it further.
32. "But in the course of centuries and millennia they will mix with other human populations and the heavens, so as to generate a new humankind and special lineages, as the celestial sons did with the Earth people.
33. "Jmmanuel, you are an informed insider, begotten from among our ranks by a celestial son.
34. "With your knowledge you will make the impossible possible and accomplish things that Earth humans will deem miraculous.
35. "You know the power of the spirit, but beware of abusing it.
36. "Your own wisdom and the knowledge obtained through us should contribute to the well-being of humankind, though the road leading thereto will be very difficult for them and for you.
37. "You will be misunderstood and denounced, because Earth humans are still ignorant and addicted to delusionary beliefs.
38. "They believe that god is Creation itself and not the ruler of the celestial sons and these human lineages.
39. "Earth people attribute to him the omnipotence of Creation and glorify him as Creation itself.
40. "But god is a human being, like all the celestial sons and the terrestrial humans, except that he is vastly greater in consciousness than they are.
41. "Creation, however, is of immeasurably higher standing than god, the lord over the celestial sons and terrestrial humans, because Creation is the immeasurable enigma.
