When...

When Salome asked when the things would be known that she asked about, the Lord said, "When you have trampled on the garment of shame and when the two become one and the male with the female is neither male nor female."

Gospel of the Egyptians, quoted by Clement of Alexandria, Strom. 3.13.92

(note: this Greek 1st/2nd CE text is different from the later Coptic text of the same name in the Nag Hammadi Library)
