  1. John S. Hatcher, Amrollah Hemmat, Ehsanollah Hemmat. Bahá'u'lláh's "Ode of the Dove": A Provisional Translation (2019). A lengthy dialogue between Bahá'u'lláh (as persona/narrator) and the Huriyyih — the Maid of Heaven (a personification of “the Most Great Spirit”).
  2. Lorraine Hetu Manifold, comp. Divine Melody: Song of the Mystic Dove (2022). Selections from the Writings that refer to the Word of God as music emanating from the mystic dove or the Nightingale of Paradise, and the Divine Word as a melody calling for us to spread the Word in song and praise.
  3. Michael W. Sours. Immanence and Transcendence in Theophanic Symbolism (1992). Bahá'u'lláh uses symbols to depict theophanies — the appearance of God and the divine in the realm of creation — such as "angel," "fire," and the prophets' claims to be incarnating the "face" or "voice" of God; these convey the transcendence of God.
