Abstract | Examination of four available manuscripts, dates of issue, variations, exclusions, verse numbering followed by a running commentary on its tone, message and implications for the future of the Babi movement. |
Notes | This paper provides an analytical examination of a vital piece of Babi literature most commonly referred to as the Will and Testament of the Bab. Whilst this document is an important Babi work and has been available in several MS copies, it has not yet given the attention it deserves by generations of Babi scholars. Indeed it may be a pre-requisite to study this tablet first prior to analysing the events of the Middle Babi period. |
