The Concentrated Centre of Nature · Passage 61

German

Sondern befehle diese deutliche und Sonnenklare Schrifften der allweisen Versehung GOttes, denn er gibt den Weisen ihre Weißheit, und den Verständigen ihren Verstand, Er offenbahret was tieff verborgen ist, Er weiß, was im Finsterniß liegt, weil bey ihm lauter Licht ist.

English

Instead I commend these plain and sun-clear writings to God’s all-wise providence. For he gives wisdom to the wise and understanding to those who understand. He reveals what is deeply hidden; he knows what lies in darkness, because with him there is nothing but light.

About This Reading Edition

The complete supplied German–English edition of the 1682 collection: the main treatise attributed to Ali Puli, Helbig’s preface, distinct companion discourses, the short potable-gold preparation and the anonymous Father’s Last Testament, with four historical figures, 103 annotations and the full Diotimos study apparatus.

Historical Text and Translation

The governing German witness is the complete 1682 collection in Badische Landesbibliothek Karlsruhe, shelfmark 87 B 76050, with an unnumbered title and printed pages 1–80. The historical title’s Arabic and Portuguese antecedents and its authorial persona are retained as claims, not authenticated originals. Johann Otto Helbig (Hellwig), Martin de Delle, J. J. F. and the anonymous testament retain their distinct historical roles.
