After all these things, I, Thomas the Israelite, have written what I saw and remembered for the Gentiles and our brethren; and many other things which Jesus did, who was born in the land of Judah. Behold the house of Israel hath seen all things from the first even to the last: what great signs and marvels Jesus did among them, very good and invisible to his father, as the Holy Scripture^[1] telleth; and the prophets testified to his works among all the people of Israel. And it is he who shall judge the world according to the will of immortality,^[2] for he is the Son of God in all the world. All glory and honour for ever becometh him who liveth and reigneth God through all ages for ever. Amen.
