O brother, behold how the inner mysteries of "rebirth", of "return", and of "resurrection" have each, through these all-sufficing, these unanswerable, and conclusive utterances, been unveiled and unravelled before thine eyes. God grant that through His gracious and invisible assistance, thou mayest divest thy body and soul of the old garment, and array thyself with the new and imperishable attire.37 (113:5) The explanation of other puzzles, such as the story of Adam and Eve, the story of Creation, the immortality of the soul, free-will, reincarnation, and proofs of the existence of God, have been explained elsewhere. (113:6) The present book has dealt only with basic Christian subjects. (113:7) Ninety years ago hardly anyone would teach the Christian Bible in Persia. Bahá'u'lláh asked, "Why?" (113:8) He was told, "It is not the Word of God."
(113:9)
