"Cryptogram about Christ: Night fell. Christ was seated at a threshold. A scribe approached and asked: “Why dost thou sit in the passageway?” Christ answered: “Because I am the threshold of the Spirit. If thou wouldst pass, pass through Me.” Another scribe asked: “Can it be that the Son of David sits at the place for dogs?” Christ answered: “Verily, thou defamest David, My Father.” It became dark, and a third scribe asked: “Why sitteth thou as if fearful of thy house?” Christ answered: “I await the night’s darkness, to free Me from sight of thee. Verily, let darkness depart into darkness.” Then, rising and pointing to Mount Moriah, whereon stood the Temple, He said: “My Grandfather created the Temple of stone, but He sits under the linen of the tent.” Said the scribe: “Madman, he believes that Solomon still lives.” And they departed in ignorance. Afterwards Mary came out of the house and, seeing Christ, said: “Teacher, share our evening meal.” Christ answered: “The gift of the heart glows in the darkness.”"
