The Descent of the Messiah — Page 214
THE DESCENT OF THE MESSIAH 41 [continued] have been written in this table, there are at least one mil- lion other Signs that are proven through the revelations: يَأْتُونَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ يَأْتِيكَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ Then there is a series of Signs that have become manifest through the revelation: إِنِّي مُهِينٌ مَنْ أَرَادَاهَا نَتَكَ 2 Another point worth noting here is that the revelation: was revealed to * هُزِى إِلَيْكَ بِجِذْعِ النَّخْلَةِ تُسَاقِطُ عَلَيْكِ رُطَبًا جَنِيًّا Mary after her son, Jesus, was born and she was very weak. God has also named me Mary in Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya and, like Mary, commanded me: وَكُنْ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ See page 242 of Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya. Thus, the reve- lation, "Take hold of the palm-tree and shake it," points to the fact that the child born through the pregnancy of Truth was named Jesus. As long as he was weak, he was nourished by Mary-like traits, but when he grew strong, it was said unto him: يَا عِيسَى إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَى ، 1 "People will come to you from every distant track.
