He, [the Báb] as affirmed by Himself, “the Primal Point from
which have been generated all created things,” “one of the sustaining pillars
of the Primal Word of God,” the “Mystic Fane,” the “Great Announcement,” the
“Flame of that supernal Light that glowed upon Sinai,” the “Remembrance of God”
concerning Whom “a separate Covenant hath been established with each and every
Prophet” had, through His advent, at once fulfilled the promise of all ages and
ushered in the consummation of all Revelations.
- Shoghi Effendi (‘God Passes
By’)
