Conflicting writings about the followers of Moses, attributed to Abdu'l-Baha.  Last updated: May 22nd, 2024.

Passage 1, attributed to Abdu'l-Baha, conflicts with a number of writings of Baha'u'llah, Muhammad, Jesus, and other writings of Abdu'l-Baha (see for example, passages 2 - 9 at following link). It conflicts with the requirement for true believers to recognise Manifestations of God when they appear. This appears to be another writing whose authenticity and chain of custody should be investigated..

1)
"Moreover, materially as well (as spiritually), the Israelites will gather in the Holy Land. This is irrefutable prophecy, for the ignominy which Israel has suffered for will-nigh twenty-five hundred years will now be changed into eternal glory, and in the eyes of all, the Jewish people will become glorified to such an extent as to draw the jealousy of its enemies and the envy of its friends.
(According to information received by the National Spiritual Assembly of the United States several years ago this Tablet was revealed by the Master in the year 1897 to a Jewish Community in the Orient: Bahá'í News. No. 250. December 1951. p. 5)

6. O SON OF EARTH!
Know, verily, the heart wherein the least remnant of envy yet lingers, shall never attain My everlasting dominion, nor inhale the sweet savors of holiness breathing from My kingdom of sanctity.
-- Baha'u'llah, The Persian Hidden Words
