Apocrypha · Chapter 49 of 87
Syriac Apocalypse
Nevertheless, I will again ask from Thee, O Mighty One, yea, I will ask mercy from Him who made all things.
2'In what shape will those live who live in Thy day? or how will the splendour of those who (are) after that time continue?
3Will they then resume this form of the present, and put on these entrammelling members, which are now involved in evils, and in which evils are consummated, or wilt Thou perchance change these things which have been in the world, as also the world?'
