7 Then Eve went down into the water, as Adam had
commanded her. Adam also went down into the water; and
they stood praying; and besought the Lord to forgive them
their offense, and to restore them to their former state.
8 And they stood like that praying, until the end of
the thirty-five days.
Chapter XXXIII - Satan falsely promises the "bright light."
1 But Satan, the hater of all good, sought them in the cave,
but found them not, although he searched diligently for them.
2 But he found them standing in the water praying and
thought within himself, "Adam and Eve are standing like
that in that water praying to God to forgive them their
transgression, and to restore them to their former state,
and to take them from under my hand.
3 But I will deceive them so that they shall come out
of the water, and not fulfil their vow."
4 Then the hater of all good, went not to Adam, but he
went to Eve, and took the form of an angel of God, praising
and rejoicing, and said to her:--
5 "Peace be to you! Be glad and rejoice! God is
favorable to you, and He sent me to Adam.
