by Mirza Abu'l-Fadl
Originally published in 1900, in Cairo, Miracles and Metaphors is now available in English. This is a collection of essays and short commentaries of Mirzá Abu'l-Fadl, revered Baha'i historian and teacher. He takes a Bahá'í approach to common religious discussions: Are Scriptures to be taken literally? Do miracles occur? What is an angel? Are the stories of the Old Testament to be believed? When first published, it created heated debate among Egyptian intellectuals and scholars. Today it is a great look into the perspectives of an early Baha'i who served Baha'u'llah and the central figures of the Heroic Age.
