秘密マルコ 第3章
— A More Spiritual Gospel
1
So of the chatter about the divinely inspired Gospel according to Mark, some things are completely false, and even if others contain some true things, they nevertheless have not been transmitted truly. For true things when commingled with concoctions become counterfeits, so that, according to the saying, “Even salt loses its taste.” Then regarding Mark, during Peter's sojourn in Rome, he wrote a narrative of the Lord's deeds, but not recording everything, nor especially indicating what is mystical, but selecting what he thought most useful for the increase of the catechumens' faith.

When, however, Peter was martyred, Mark fled to Alexandria, bringing both his own and Peter's drafts, from which he copied into his first book the things fitting for advancement in knowledge, preparing a more spiritual gospel for the use of the mature. Similarly, not once did he publish the secret things, nor write the hierophantic doctrine of the Lord, but arranged the previously mentioned deeds as well as others. Furthermore, he introduced certain sayings, the exegesis of which he had knowledge, to initiate the hearers into the holy of holies of the truth veiled seven times. Therefore, in this way he prepared in advance, not grudgingly or carelessly, as it seems to me, and when he died he left behind his writing to the church in Alexandria, where it is even now kept exceedingly well guarded, being recited solely to those who those initiated into the greater mysteries.
