8. 1. The meaning of inspiration is either that it was well explained to them and made to recognize good and evil through the prophets and heavenly books, or it means that the awareness of good and evil, virtue and wickedness, was placed in their intellect and nature, so that they may adopt virtue and avoid evil.
