In confirmation of the exalted rank of the true believer, referred to by Baha'u'llah, He reveals the following: "The station which he who hath truly recognized this Revelation will attain is the same as the one ordained for such prophets of the house of Israel as are not regarded as Manifestations `endowed with constancy.'"
(Shoghi Effendi: World Order of Baha'u'llah, Page: 111)
This would obviously apply to 'Abdu'l-Baha, but are there any instances in which He equates His station with minor Prophets? I think He wanted to avoid that!

David
