notes

Epistle of Bahá'u'lláh, discussing subjects similar to themes explained in Seven Valleys and the Kitáb-i-Íqán. Authorized translation first published in 2002.

"... In part [Javáhiru'l-Asrár] resembles--though not on a mystical level--some of the features of The Seven Valleys...The importance of this Tablet becomes apparent when we note that its themes are similar to those of the Kitáb-i-Íqán. Although less in compass, its subjects are those which Bahá'u'lláh has more fully elaborated in that book. For example, He enumerates in this Tablet a number of causes which have prevented the followers of all religions from recognizing the next Manifestation of God; stipulates some of the qualities which the seeker must possess in order to find the truth; affirms that God is unknowable in His Essence; asserts the unity of all His Messengers; explains the meaning of such terms as the Day of Judgement, resurrection, life, death and similar terminologies mentioned in the Holy Books of the past; interprets certain prophecies from the Old and New Testaments, and elucidates passages from the Qur'an and traditions of Islám which anticipate the coming of the Qá'im and the advent of the Day of God, identified by Bahá'u'lláh with the appearance of 'Him Whom God shall make manifest..."
