Chapter 7  
     
1.
 This is the manifestation of the Father and his revelation to his Aeons.
 
2.
 He revealed his hidden self and explained it.
 
3.
 For who is it who exists if it is not the Father himself?
 
4.
 All the spaces are his emanations.
 
5.
 They knew that they stem from him as children from a perfect man.
 
6.
 They knew that they had not yet received form nor had they yet received a name, every one of which the Father produces.
 
7.
 If they at that time receive form of his knowledge, though they are truly in him, they do not know him.
 
8.
 But the Father is perfect.
 
9.
 He knows every space which is within him.
 
10.
 If he pleases, he reveals anyone whom he desires by giving him a form and by giving him a name; and he does give him a name and cause him to come into being.
 
11.
 Those who do not yet exist are ignorant of him who created them.
 
12.
 I do not say, then, that those who do not yet exist are nothing.
 
13.
 But they are in him who will desire that they exist when he pleases, like the event which is going to happen.
 
14.
 On the one hand, he knows, before anything is revealed, what he will produce.
 
15.
 On the other hand, the fruit which has not yet been revealed does not know anything, nor is it anything either.
 
16.
 Thus each space which, on its part, is in the Father comes from the existent one, who, on his part, has established it from the nonexistent. [...] he who does not exist at all, will never exist.
