In the development through which mankind has passed, the book "Ephesus" describes as historical event the "Golden Age" which still lingers in man's consciousness like a far-off wish fulfillment. The events are presented in a wonderfully vibrant language, and are inwardly experienced by the attentive and spiritually open, unbiased reader. How men lived in the Will of the Creator , and how thereby their path led them outwardly forward and inwardly upward in their development, is intelligibly rendered. they were truly "happy", for they went joyfully through struggle and hardship; they still had genuine helps, because they had connection with Eternity, with the Light-Streams of God.
