Lawh-i-Istintaq/GPT4 18

"You have taken hold of the roots of yourselves and discarded the roots of Allah behind you. What is the matter with you that you do not understand?" This verse was repeatedly recited by the Tongue of Grandeur, and after the arrival of the Presence of the Step [Jamál-i-Qadam], the assembly members apologized, stating that they were obliged to investigate because three people had been killed, and all the people of the town were afraid and alarmed. Therefore, it was necessary to act according to the law. It seemed that the poor [man] was not even aware of the law.

And from the verses of the Surah of Kings, He recited, among other blessed passages, "I have not passed by a tree but that my heart has addressed it: 'Would that I were cut down for the sake of my name, and that my body were crucified upon you in the path of my Lord.'" In the midst of the discourse, the pillars of the Most Merciful began to tremble. Then after that, He rose and the Beauty of the Youth [Bahá'u'lláh] proceeded to another place, leaving the gathering.
