The wording comes from an idea widely attributed to Mikhail Lomonosov, the 18th century Russian scientist and poet who argued that nature and scripture reveal the Creator in different ways. In the fuller version, the first book shows divine majesty through the created world, while the second expresses divine will. The Boguslav excerpt shortens that thought into a shareable spoken clip, which is why it now circulates in Russian faith, philosophy and education posts rather than as a complete lecture or sermon recording online today.
