Earth cycle until it has freed <strong>its</strong>elf from the power of Satan<br />
<strong>and</strong> has regained original purity…<br />
The Essene Prophet described himself as the prophet presaged<br />
by Moses, who was to bring mankind the Divine Law.<br />
This revelation meant the achievement of original purity<br />
though baptism <strong>and</strong> observance of the Divine Comm<strong>and</strong>ments.<br />
Humans are to be reborn <strong>and</strong> become a new creation.<br />
Then another said: "Moses, the greatest in Palestine, suffered<br />
our forefathers to eat the flesh of clean beasts, <strong>and</strong> forbade<br />
only the flesh of unclean beasts. Why, therefore, do you<br />
forbid us the flesh of all beasts? Which law comes from God?<br />
That of Moses, or your law?"<br />
And Jesus answered: "God gave, by Moses, ten comm<strong>and</strong>ments<br />
to your forefathers. 'These comm<strong>and</strong>ments are hard,'<br />
said your forefathers, <strong>and</strong> they could not keep them. When<br />
Moses saw this, he had compassion on his people,<br />
<strong>and</strong> would not that they perish. And then he gave them ten<br />
times ten comm<strong>and</strong>ments. For he whose feet are strong as<br />
the mountain of Zion, needs no crutches; but he whose limbs<br />
do shake, gets further having crutches, than without them.<br />
And Moses said to the Lord: 'My heart is filled with sorrow,<br />
for my people will be lost. For they are without knowledge,<br />
<strong>and</strong> are not able to underst<strong>and</strong> thy comm<strong>and</strong>ments. They<br />
are as little children who cannot yet underst<strong>and</strong> their father's<br />
words. Suffer, Lord, that I give them other laws, that<br />
they may not perish. If they may not be with thee, Lord, let<br />
them not be against thee; that they may sustain themselves,<br />
<strong>and</strong> when the time has come, <strong>and</strong> they are ripe for thy<br />
words, reveal to them thy laws.' For that did Moses break<br />
the two tablets of stone whereon were written the ten comm<strong>and</strong>ments,<br />
<strong>and</strong> he gave them ten times ten in their stead.<br />
