Baha'u'llah has said that He is the Spirit of Truth, and that He has come to guide us into all truth. He has unsealed the Scriptures, as prophesied by Christ, explaining their meaning, revealing their inner significance. Like Jesus, He came with a new Name, one that no one was expecting. (6:58)

Baha'u'llah means the "Glory of God," the "Glory of the Lord," the "Glory of the Father." This name is mentioned many times in the Bible. Below are a few instances: (6:59)

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. (mat 16:27) (6:60) see

The prophet Ezekiel was exiled to Babylon near the ancient river of Chebar which was located near the present-day city of Baghdad where Baha'u'llah spent ten years of His exile. There Ezekiel wrote this reference to Baha'u'llah's name: (6:61)

Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar: and I fell on my face. (eze 3:23) (6:62) see

Again, Ezekiel writes:
And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. (eze 43:1) (6:63) see

Baha'u'llah arrived in what is now Israel from the way of the east. He was exiled there from Adrianople by the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. (6:64)
