Early Christian Theodore is asking early Christian Clement. Is it true? You, Clement, are the head of our Christian catechist school in Alexandria. You know this gospel, anyway. Answer me what I (Theodore) ought to do. Clement answers. Of course, as ideological chieftain of the parish of Alexandria he knows the secret gospel. He quotes from that for Theodore:
“And they come into Bethany. And a certain woman whose brother had died was there. And, coming, she prostrated herself before Jesus and says to him, "son of David, have mercy on me". But the disciples rebuked her. And Jesus, being angered, went off with her into the garden where the tomb was, and straightway, going in where the youth was, he stretched forth his hand and raised him, seizing his hand. But the youth, looking upon him, loved him and began to beseech him that he might be with him. And going out of the tomb they came into the house of the youth, for he was rich. And after six days Jesus told him what to do and in the evening the youth comes to him, wearing a linen cloth over his naked body. And he remained with him that night, for Jesus taught him the mystery of the Kingdom of God. And thence, arising, he returned to the other side of the Jordan
And now Clement is adding:
“And these words follow the text, ‘And James and John come to him’ and all that section. But ‘naked man with naked man’ and the other things, about which you wrote, are not found. And after the words, ’And he comes into Jericho’, the secret Gospel adds only, ‘And the sister of the youth whom Jesus loved and his mother and Salome were there, and Jesus did not receive them.’ But many other things about which you wrote both seem to be and are falsifications.
