O thou who treadest the path of justice and beholdest the countenance of mercy! Thine epistle was received, thy question was noted |

abstract | A lengthy commentary in answer to a question on the fulfilment of prophetic expectations in unexpected ways, describing the difficulties encountered in understanding sacred scriptures, offering keys to their symbolic interpretation with reference to a passage in the Gospels, and describing in a manner similar to ‘the Seven Valleys’ the stages traversed by the spiritual wayfarers. |
