To whom the spiritual interpretation is spoken
For the adoption in Christ has become for us authority of so great a salvation — we who have come to be not of bloods and of the will of man and woman, whom he also confesses to be his brothers, saying: "I will declare your name to my brothers." (John 1:12–13) (Hebrews 2:12) (Psalm 22:22) (Romans 8:15) (Galatians 4:5)
Greek
Ἡ γὰρ ἐν <X(ριστ)ῷ> υ[ἱ]οθεσία ἐξουσία τοσαύτης ἡ[μ]ῖν ἐγένετο σωτηρίας τοῖς ο[ὐχὶ] ἐξ αἱμάτων καὶ θελήσεω[ς ἀ]νδρὸς καὶ γυναικὸς γεν[ομέ]νοις, οὓς καὶ ὁμο[λ]ογεῖ ἀ[δελ]φούς αὐτοῦ εἶναι λέ[γων·] "Ἀπαγγελῶ τὸ ὄνομά σου τ[οῖ]ς ἀδελφοῖς μου".
