| Notes | Bahá'í Faith: pp. 50-51: "...there is now a man named Behar imprisoned in Arabia by the Turkish Government, who, saying that the Bab was his forerunner, gives himself out to be God the Father. He has, in this monstrous and absurd language, addressed several of the Powers, as Mahommed did, to beware how they neglect his presence upon earth; and it is a fact that this miserable delusion has found believers and followers even among the well-to-do classes in Ispahan, where, however, such opinions must be kept secret, for heterodoxy in Persia is punishable with death." |
