...The David referred to by the Bab, and stated by Him to
have preceded Moses, is not the same one as King David, the father of King
Solomon, who lived in the tenth century B.C. and who obviously lived many
years, and indeed many centuries after Moses. Abdu’l-Baha has explained this in
a Tablet.
- Shoghi Effendi (From a message dated February 17, 1939 written on behalf of Shoghi
Effendi; ‘Dawn of a New Day’)
