THE CANONICAL PRAYERBOOK OF THE MANDAEANS

PRAYER #20


Blessed art thou, Outer Door, and blessed art thou, Everlasting Abode!

Blessed are ye, great beings of radiance and mighty and powerful beings of light.

Blessed, lauded and honoured be the 'uthras which dwell on the jordan!

Jordan! be gentle towards these souls which have descended into thee!

Let healing be theirs by virtue of the Word of Truth and its upliiting by Yukabar-Ziwa.


[
This is the dedicatory prayer of the jordan.

When thou hast extolled the jordan, if thou baptisest several souls recite as it is written; it only one soul, say "The soul of N. who hath descended into thee" and rise to the bank and recite "I rose up from the Jordan".]
