Answer: By “mysteries” is meant such matters and questions
as are remote and hidden from the minds and understandings of the people, but
which can later be grasped by fair-minded souls if a perfect Individual
unravels and explains them. Thus, the reality of the advent of Christ was one
of God’s mysteries in the Mosaic Dispensation, which was later disclosed and
witnessed through the manifestation of Christ.
