9. And definitely did He show concerning this stone:--Lo! on this stone will I open seven eyes. [677] And what then are the seven eyes that were opened on the stone? Clearly the Spirit of God that abode on Christ with seven operations, as Isaiah the Prophet said:--The Spirit of God shall rest and dwell upon Him, (a spirit) of wisdom and understanding, of counsel and of courage, of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. [678] These were the seven eyes that were opened upon the Stone, and these are the seven eyes of the Lord which look upon all the earth. [679]
