I said to him, I attained life when I heard these things thus accurately from you, for I know that if I do not again add to my sins I shall be saved. You shall be saved, said he, and all who do these things.

I asked him again, saying, Sir, since you for[*] once endure me explain this also to me. Say on, said he. If, sir, said I, a wife, or on the other hand a husband, die, and the survivor marry, does

the one who marries commit sin?

He does not sin, said he, but if he remain single he gains for himself more exceeding honour and great glory with the Lord, but even if he marry he does not sin.

Preserve therefore purity and holiness, and you shall live to God. Keep from henceforth, from the day on which you were handed over to me, these things which I tell you and shall tell you, and I will dwell in your house.

And for your former transgression there shall be remission if you keep my commandments, and all men shall obtain a remission, if they keep these commandments of mine and walk in this purity.
