Formulation of the claim

The ordinary book does not remain in its original status; rather, it enters a historical trajectory that makes it a sacred heavenly book.

Explanation

The idea here is that sacredness is not an attribute inherent in the book from the outset, but the result of a historical transformation that passes through processes such as transcendence, anonymization, and veiling. In this sense, the text moves from being an ordinary earthly book to being read and treated as a sacred heavenly book.

Its place in the argument about the book

This atom serves an essential distinction within the argument between the ordinary book and the sacred book, and it shows that the difference between them is not merely a difference in name or content, but in the historical trajectory that grants the text the status of holiness.

What the atom does not say

This atom does not explain all the stages of transformation in detail, nor does it spell out the textual or social mechanisms that accompanied this transition. Nor does it claim that every book passes through the same trajectory in the same way.
