Rather than stating his will or purpose plainly, at times Jehovah has intentionally obscured his prophetic sayings, using analogies, mystifying “dark sayings, ” or riddles that perplex.
Reizēm Jehova nevis skaidri paziņoja savu gribu vai nodomus, bet tīši aizmigloja pravietiskos vēstījumus, izmantodams līdzības un neizprotamus ” tumšus vārdus ” jeb mīklas. ( Psalms 78: 2; 4. Mozus 12: 8, LB - 26.)
