Comments - (होतारम्) सुखशान्तिप्रदातारम् हु - दानादनयोः । Both Rev. Stevenson and Griffith admit in their translation that the attributes of Agni in this mantras are like जातवेदाः (Jāta Vadas—“All-wise,” "Who is acquainted with every living creature" "कवि or sage विप्रम wise etc. Can all these attributes be of the material fire? no sensible person wi!! think so and yet instead of admitting that by Agni in such verses is meant not fire but God, they take it for the fire only. How strange is this, denoting their prejudice against the Vedic teachings of pure monotheism ?
