The Acts of Thomas
ActThom
[1]And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎, and Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him. [No book]
[2]And ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ said unto Satan: '‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ rebuke thee, O Satan, yea, ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee; is not this man a brand plucked out of the fire?' [No book]
[3]Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel. [No book]
[4]And he answered and spoke unto those that stood before him, saying: 'Take the filthy garments from off him.' And unto him he said: 'Behold, I cause thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with robes.' [No book]
[5]And I said: 'Let them set a fair mitre upon his head.' So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments; and the angel of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ stood by. [No book]
[6]And the angel of ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ forewarned Joshua, saying: [No book]
[7]'Thus saith ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ of hosts: If thou wilt walk in My ways, and if thou wilt keep My charge, and wilt also judge My house, and wilt also keep My courts, then I will give thee free access among these that stand by. [No book]
[8]Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou and thy fellows that sit before thee; for they are men that are a sign; for, behold, I will bring forth My servant the Shoot. [No book]
[9]For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone are seven facets; behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ of hosts: And I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. [No book]
[10]In that day, saith ‏𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇‎ of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig-tree. [No book]
