The story of the journey of two parallel movements to the Holy Land in 1868: the Bahá'ís from Iran and the Templars from Germany. Includes early descriptions of Haifa from both sources, comparative translations of the Tablet to G. Hardegg, and more.
This paper is noteworthy because it contains the only English translations of Vahid Rafati’s Persian paper about Abdu’l-Baha’s visits to Haifa ("Jamal-i-Qadam dar Haifa" ["Bahá’u’lláh in Haifa"], Pajuheshnameh vol. 3, Autumn 1997; see pp. 48 and 66-72, below).
