Biblical typology

John 17, 'the great prayer of the Bible': 'I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do' and 'glorify thou me with the glory which I had with thee before the world was', read as the return, by ascent in consciousness, from the descent in which one believed oneself a son of man to the state one had before the world was, one with the Father. Only the concept of self has fallen. (Early, psychological form; later lectures give this return a different weight.)
