notes: Nader Saiedi explains in his book "Gate of the Heart", p. 277, that "the Báb has coined the term irtifá' (meaning both removing and elevating) for the idea of abrogation. Each Revelation, in simultaneously abrogating and exalting the previous Dispensation, is the return of the previous Revelation in the station of its perfection...". The index of this book lists this concept under "Abrogation (irtifá), referring to pages 7, 25, 208, 254, 274, 277. References are to the Persian Bayán.
