At one point, Jesus says:
“Mary, thou blessed one, whom I will perfect in all mysteries of those of the height, discourse in openness, thou, whose heart is raised to the kingdom of heaven more than all thy brethren”.
At another point, he tells her:
“Well done, Mary. You are more blessed than all women on earth, because you will be the fullness of fullness and the completion of completion.”
Simon Peter, annoyed at Mary’s dominance of the conversation, tells Jesus:
“My master, we cannot endure this woman who gets in our way and does not let any of us speak, though she talks all the time.”
Mary defends herself, saying:
“My master, I understand in my mind that I can come forward at any time to interpret what Pistis Sophia has said, but I am afraid of Peter, because he threatens me and hates our gender.
Jesus assures her:
“Any of those filled with the spirit of light will come forward to interpret what I say: no one will be able to oppose them.”
