Mirza Abu'l-Fadl discusses this issue in depth in his magnum opus, the al-farAA'id and I wish Khazeh would share with us his translation of that book. I agree with Susan. And the inimitability of the Quran or of the Writings of Baha'u'llah is not in their literary or stylistic or rhythmicity or rhyme or poetry or anything like that. The miracle is what the Word of God does to the human heart and soul, the transformative potency of the Word of God, its creative power, the ability of the Word of God to act like unto an elixir and change human beings for the better and start off civilizations, etc. Best regards, Iskandar Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry® __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:%%emailaddr%% Unsubscribe: send a blank email to mailto:%%email.unsub%% Subscribe: send subscribe bahai-st in the message body to ly...@list.jccc.edu Or subscribe: http://list.jccc.edu:8080/read/all_forums/subscribe?name=bahai-st Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:bahai-st@list.jccc.edu Web - http://list.jccc.edu:8080/read/?forum=bahai-st News (on-campus only) - news://list.jccc.edu/%%list.name%% Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai...@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu
