Divine Luminaries

"That these divine Luminaries seem to be confined at times to specific
designations and attributes, as you have observed and are now observing, is due solely to the imperfect and limited comprehension of certain minds.

The quintessence of every name can hope for no access unto their court of holiness, and the highest and purest of all attributes can never approach their kingdom of glory.
Immeasurably high are the Prophets of God exalted above the comprehension of men, who can never know them except by their own Selves. Far be it from His glory that His chosen Ones should be magnified by any other than their own persons. Glorified are they above the praise of men; exalted are they above human understanding!

Bahá’u’lláh, The Kitáb-i-Íqán, pp. 35
