Anton Haddad's Notes

this means that the Kibla and manifestation are inseparable, that where he is, the faces must be turned.

Earl Elder's Notes

2. That is, be ready to listen to what God is saying through Baha'u'llah's books. The "Multitude of al-Bayan" are the Babis who have accepted Baha'u'llah.

3. The Muslim faces Mecca in worship, but the Babi and Baha'i are to face the Manifestation, wherever He may be. "He said," i.e., the Bab commanded this.

4. Baha'u'llah claimed that He was predicted by the Bab as the "One Whom God Manifests".
