22 Yea, to that being who beguiled our first parents;
23 Who transformeth himself nigh unto an angel of light, and stirreth up the children of men unto secret combinations of murder, and all manner of secret works of darkness.
24 O how great the goodness of our God, who prepareth a way for our escape from the grasp of this awful monster;
25 Yea, that monster, death and hell, which I call the death of the body, and also the death of the spirit.
26 And because of the way of deliverance of our God the Holy One of Israel, this death, of which I have spoken, which is the temporal, shall deliver up its dead, which death is the grave.
27 And this death of which I have spoken, which is the spiritual death, shall deliver up its dead; which spiritual death is hell;
28 Wherefore, death and hell must deliver up their dead, and hell must deliver up its captive spirits,
29 And the grave must deliver up its captive bodies, and the bodies and the spirits of men will be restored, one to the other;
30 And it is by the power of the resurrection of the Holy One of Israel.
31 O how great the plan of our God! For on the other hand, the paradise of God must deliver up the spirits of the righteous, and the grave deliver up the bodies of the righteous;
32 And the spirit and the body is restored to itself again, and all men become incorruptible, and immortal, and they are living souls, having a perfect knowledge like unto us, in the flesh;
