Say: O people! This is the Hand of God, which hath ever been
above your own hands, could ye but understand.
Within its grasp We have ordained all the good of the heavens and the
earth, such that no good shall be made manifest but that it proceedeth
therefrom. Thus have We made it the
source and treasury of all good both aforetime and hereafter. Say:
The rivers of divine wisdom and utterance which flowed through the
Tablets of God are joined to this Most Great Ocean, could ye but perceive it,
and whatever hath been set forth in His Books hath attained its final
consummation in this most exalted Word—a Word shining above the horizon of the
Will of the All-Glorious in this Revelation which hath filled with delight all
things seen and unseen. (Baha'u'llah, Suriy-i-Haykal, The Summons of the Lord of
Hosts)
