What did the Bab mean by saying that no one would be invested with
prophethood after Thee [Him?] If Bahaullah was going to come shortly
after him? And if the Bab came with the full alphabet and the Bayan
enshrines all future revelation does that mean Bahaullah's message was
redundant?
In one sense the Bab and Baha`u'llah are two different men with two different books. But in another sense they are the same Spirit and the same Book. Baha`u'llah explains this in the Iqan. And if the Bab came with the full revelation, why did He specify the arrival of the new Prophet (He Whom God Shall Make Manifest)? and subordinate His own Revelation and message to HWGSMM?
