New Commentary - Hájí Muhammad Táhir-i-Málmírí attained the presence of Bahá'u'lláh around 1878-9. He has left an account that mirrors photograph 33: "Early in the morning a large tent was pitched in front of the entrance to the garden on a delightful open space. That morning all the believers, numbering almost two hundred, consisting of those who were living in the Holy Land and the pilgrims, came to Mazra'ih. Around the time of noon, the Blessed Beauty came down from the Mansion and majestically entered the tent. All the believers were standing in front of the tent." RB, Vol 4, p.9.

New Commentary - After nine years of confinement within the walls of `Akká, Bahá'u'lláh one day remarked: 'I have not gazed on verdure for nine years. The country is the world of the soul, the city is the world of bodies.' Upon hearing this Abdu'l-Baha found a house outside the walls of `Akká--a place called Mazra'ih. From 1877 to 1879 Bahá'u'lláh lived at Mazra'ih. "King of Glory", p.357. This property is now owned by the Baha'i Faith and is a place of pilgrimage.
