Note 55 — V THE BIRTH OF THE MESSIAH. THE BAPTISM
C. Delisle Burns translation
Id. iii. 5, 10; i. 148, 1. Cf. also Adalb. Kuhn, “Die Herabkunft des Feuers und des Göttertrankes,” 2nd ed., 1886–9. In Mazdeism also the light is indissolubly connected with the air, passing as this does as its bearer. Cf. F. Cumont, “Textes et monuments,” i. 228, ii. 87 sq., and his “Mystères de Mithra.” ↑
