5. Φασὶ δὲ οὑτοι, ὡς καὶ ἄνω μοι προδεδήλωται, τὸν διάβολον εἶναι υἱὸν τῆς ἑβδόμης ἐξουσίας τουτέστι τοῦ Σαβαώθ. εἶναι δὲ τὸν Σαβαὼθ θεὸν τῶν Ἰουδαίων, τὸν δὲ διάβολον πονηρὸν αὐτοῦ υἱόν, ὄντα δὲ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐναντιοῦσθαι τῷ ἰδίῳ πατρί. καὶ τὸν αὐτοῦ πατέρα μήτε τοιοῦτον εἶναι μήτε πάλιν εἶναι τὸν ἀκατάληπτον θεόν, ὃν Πατέρα φασίν, ἀλλὰ ἀριστερᾶς εἶναι ἐξουσίας. ἕτερον δὲ πάλιν μῦθον λέλουσιν οἱ τοιοῦτοι, ὅτι, φησίν, ὁ διάβολος ἐλθὼν πρὸς τὴν Εὔαν συνήφθη αὐτῇ ὡς ἀνὴρ γυναικὶ καὶ ἐγέννησεν ἐξ αὐτῆς τόν τε Κάϊν καὶ τὸν Ἄβελ.
