only in St John's Gospel. The passage begins thus:--

'As the elders say, then also shall those deemed worthy of the
abode in heaven depart thither; and others shall enjoy the delights
of paradise; and others shall possess the splendour of the city;
for everywhere the Saviour shall be seen according as they that see
Him shall be worthy.'

Then follows the important paragraph which is translated differently by
our author [4:1] and by Dr Westcott [4:2]. For reasons which will appear
immediately, I place the two renderings side by side:--
