Open this scene in the reader →1When Jesus [said] these things, he left, [taking] Judas Iscariot with him. He said to him, “The water on the exalted mountain is [from] […] it didn’t come to [water … the well] of the tree of [the fruit …] of this realm […] after a time […], but it came to water God’s paradise and the enduring [fruit], because [it] will not corrupt that generation’s [way of life], but [it will exist] for all eternity.”
