5) Saiedi in "Logos and Civilization" points out the
significance of the numberic value of 152. Baha'u'llah signed the
Kitab-i-Iqan and some other Tablets with this number. He points that this
signified "BahA" in Arabic. The numberic value of "B" is 2, "a" is an
accent and does not have a number, "H" is 5, and "A" is 1. Since
Arabic is written from right-to-left, Baha'u'llah signed the Iqan as 152, or
BHA. Saiedi proposes that the reason Baha'u'llah chose
to sign His name in its Numeric Value is because the Bab promised that the
Promised One would complete the Bayan, which was left incomplete. The
Bayan was supposed to be 19 chapters with 19 sections, but the Bab only
completed 11 chapters of 19 sections, so the remaining is 8 chapters
of 19 sections. If you multiply 8X19, you get 152.
It's very interesting. Just one thought. Even
though Arabic words are written from right to left, the numbers are written from
left to right. Does that have an effect on the logic above.
