Chapter XX.—This epistle is to be transmitted to the brethren.
Since, then, ye requested that we would at large make you acquainted with what really
took place, we have for the present sent you this summary account through our brother
Marcus. When, therefore, ye have yourselves read this Epistle,138 be pleased to send it to
the brethren at a greater distance, that they also may glorify the Lord, who makes such choice
of His own servants. To Him who is able to bring us all by His grace and goodness139 into
his everlasting kingdom, through His only-begotten Son Jesus Christ, to Him be glory, and
honour, and power, and majesty, for ever. Amen. Salute all the saints. They that are with us
salute you, and Evarestus, who wrote this Epistle, with all his house.
138 Literally, “having learned these things.”
