The Divine Curriculum: The Bab: Volume 5, Part 2

Imagine an ancient, universal and Divinely-conceived educational program in which all of creation is a classroom. For ages, God has been sending Divine Educators to humanity, such as Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, the B b, and Bah 'u'll h.This book examines the story of the B b ("the Gate"), a young uneducated merchant in Persia, Who shocked His nation with a new Revelation from God. Part 1 explained His remarkably modern teachings and presented the opening portion of His heroic story (1844 to 1846). This book, Part 2, continues His eventful career, and brings His heroic ministry to its astounding climax (1846 to 1850). Preparing the way perfectly for the next Divine Educator, Bah 'u'll h, in 1852, the B b may well be the most effective Divine Educator in history.The B b and tens of thousands of followers were cruelly martyred by the forces of orthodoxy. Nevertheless, the B b's Cause grew into the Bah ' Faith, with over five million followers in the world today. Drawing on new research findings, this book completes the heroic, mysterious, tragic and powerful story of the B b.
