Ἠλίας ἦν ἐν παρθενίᾳ, ἵνα τὸ πρόκριτον τῆς παρθενίας τὴν ἀθανασίαν κηρύξῃ τῷ κόσμῳ καὶ τὴν μετὰ σώματος ἀφθαρσίαν· ἵνα δὲ μὴ μόνον ἐπὶ τῆς παρθενίας νομισθῇ εἶναι διὰ τὸ ἐξαίρετον ἡ ἀνάστασις καὶ σώματος ἡ παραμονή, Ἐνὼχ οὐκ ἦν παρθένος, ἀλλ᾿ ἐγκρατὴς καὶ παιδοποιήσας τέκνα. καὶ δύο μὲν οὗτοι [ἐν] ζῶσιν, ἐν σώματι καὶ ψυχῇ ἐμπαραμένοντες διὰ τὴν ⟨ἡμῶν⟩ ἐλπίδα.
