The first, and obvious question is why does He have a secret name? The book refers to Biqa trying to trick Michael the Archangel into revealing it to him. (page 117) Which brings me to my second question. What would be the benefit in it being revealed. Yes, I've read "The Nine Million Names of God", so please refrain from making any jokes about that. Lastly, has anyone read the aforementioned book? What are your opinions on it. What flaws/anomalies have you noticed. Some of it seems pretty far fetched. But it does bring up interesting topics if nothing else.
