The Ninth Sentence in the Letter to Theodore as Transcribed by Agamemnon Tselikas

Τοῦ δὲ Πέτρου μαρτυρήσαντος παρῆλθεν εἰς Ἀλεξάνδρειαν ὁ Μάρκος κομίζων καὶ τα ταυτοῦ καὶ τὰ τοῦ Πέτρου ὑπομνήματα, ἐξ ὧν μεταφέρων εἰς τὸ πρῶτον αὐτοῦ βιβλίον τὰ τοῖς προκόπτουσι περὶ τὴν γνῶσιν κατάλληλα συνέταξε πνευματικώτερον εὐαγγέλιον εἰς τὴν τῶν τελειουμένων χρῆσιν.
"But after Peter's testimony, Mark also went to Alexandria, bringing with him both his and Peter's memoranda. From these, compiling into his first book those things suitable for the advancement of knowledge, he composed a more spiritual gospel for the use of those being perfected."
