CHAP. LXIX. [SECT. XII.[160]]

1. After this the name of the Son of man, living with the Lord of

spirits,[161] was exalted by the inhabitants of the earth.

2. It was exalted in the chariots of the Spirit; and the name went forth

in the midst of them.

3. From that time I was not drawn in the midst of them; but he seated me

between two spirits, between the north and the west, where the angels

received their ropes, to measure out a place[162] for the elect and the

righteous.

4. There I beheld the fathers of the first men, and the saints, who

dwell in that place for ever.
