Testament of Our Lord

tr. Cooper and Maclean, 1902

2. Book I, Chapter 2

And Peter and John answered and said unto Him:—Tell us, O our Lord, the signs of the end,¹ and all the deeds which shall then be [done]² by them who live in this world, so that we also may make [them] known to them who believe in Thy Name in all the nations, that those generations may observe³ [them] and live. But Jesus answered and said:— Did I not, before I suffered for those that dwell on the earth, tell you some things about the end? We answered and said, [Yea,] O our Lord; but now we desire to know the deeds which [are] the signs of the end of this world, if our Lord hath judged that this is fitting for us to know⁴—for us, and for those who [shall] hear.
