[edit]Noun
[edit]ברק • (barq) m
- Judeo-Arabic spelling of بَرْق (barq, “lightning”)
- c. 1190, Maimonides, דלאלת אלחאירין [dalālat al-ḥā'irīn, The Guide for the Perplexed][1], Prefatory remarks :
- ולא תט׳ן אן תלך אלסודות אלעט׳ימה מעלומה אלי גאיתהא ונהאיתהא ענד אחד מנא לא בל תארה ילוח לנא אלחק חתי נט׳נה נהארא ת׳ם תכ׳פיה אלמואד ואלעאדאת חתי נעוד פי ליל מבהם קריב ממא כנא אולא פנכון כמן יברק עליה אלברק מרה בעד מרה והו פי לילה שדידהֵ אלט׳לאם
- [translit?]
- Do not imagine that these most difficult problems can be thoroughly understood by any one of us. This is not the case. At times the truth shines so brilliantly that we perceive it as clear as day. Our nature and habit then draw a veil over our perception, and we return to a darkness almost as dense as before. We are like those who, though beholding frequent flashes of lightning, still find themselves in the thickest darkness of the night.
