In Part 2 of the presentations on the life and theology of the Bab, Dr Williams presents the basic theological ideas that are found in His Writings. If we think of ourselves and all creation being like a painting and envision ourselves living in that painting, we can more easily understand what the Bab meant by the Essence of God being unknowable and that we understand Him only by how He is manifest in the world we experience. The unique role of the Revelations of God in forming the great religions of humankind is then explained, as a reflection of the Will of God to the world, like the paintbrush reflects the Will of God to the painting.
