''He is the Second “Life” of the second or manifested trinity “the heavenly life and light, and older than the architect of heaven and earth” (''Cod. Naz.'', Vol. I. p. 145). These trinities are as follows. The Supreme Lord of splendour and of light, luminous and refulgent, before which no other existed, is called Corona (the crown); Lord Ferho, the unrevealed life which existed in the former from eternity; and Lord Jordan—the spirit, the living water of grace (''Ibid. ''II pp. 45‐51). He is the one through whom alone we can be saved. These three constitute the trinity ''in abscondito''. The second trinity is composed of the three lives. The first is the similitude of Lord Ferho, through whom he has proceeded forth; and the second Ferho is the King of Light—MANO. The second life is ''Ish Amon ''(Pleroma), the vase of election, containing the visible thought of the ''Jordanus Maximus''—the ''type ''(or its intelligible reflection), the prototype of the living water, who is the “spiritual Jordan”. (''Ibid. ''II., p. 211.) The third life, which is produced by the other two, is ABATUR (''Ab'', the Parent or Father). This is the mysterious and decrepit “Aged of the Aged”, the Ancient “''Senem sui obtegentem et grandævum mundi''.” This latter third Life is the Father of the Demiurge Fetahil, the Creator of the world, whom the Ophites call llda‐Baoth ''(q.v.)'', though Fetahil is the ''only‐ begotten one'', the reflection of the Father, Abatur, who begets him by looking into the “dark water”. Sophia Achamoth also begets her Son Ilda‐Baoth the ''Demiurge'', by looking into the chaos of matter. But the Lord Mano, “the Lord of loftiness, the Lord of all genii”, is higher than the Father, in this kabalistic ''Codex''—one is purely spiritual, the other material. So, for instance, while Abatur’s “only‐begotten” one is the genius Fetahil, the Creator of the physical world, Lord Mano, the “Lord of Celsitude”, who is the son of Him, who is “the Father of all who preach the Gospel”, produces also an “only‐ begotten” one, the Lord Lehdaio, “a just Lord”. He is the Christos, the anointed, who pours out the “grace” of the Invisible Jordan, the Spirit of the ''Highest Crown. ''(See for further information ''Isis Unveiled.
