In Moses’ time there were 12 chiefs of tribes, in Christ’s time there were 12 apostles, and in Mohammed’s time there were 12 imams. 24 is the double of 12 for the Baha’u’llah.
Wakati wa Musa, kulikuwa na machifu wa makabila 12, wakati wa Kristo kulikuwa na mitume 12, na wakati wa Muhammad kulikuwa na maimamu 12. Namba 24 ni mara mbili ya 12 kwa Baha’u’llah.
