"Say: The first and foremost testimony establishing His truth is His own Self. Next to this testimony is His Revelation. For whoso faileth to recognize either the one or the other He hath established the words He hath revealed as proof of His reality and truth. This is, verily, an evidence of His tender mercy unto men." (Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, LII, p. 105)
Has the above passage been interpreted (or explained by a non-authoritative writer) anywhere in the literature? In particular, it is not clear to me what is meant by "His Revelation" as distinct from "His own Self" and "the words He hath revealed".
