Biblical prophecies and statements. Are they about Jesus Christ or Bahaullah?

Perhaps the rod is correction:

Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. Proverbs 22:15.


Perhaps iron is the Earth. (Brass, silver, and gold as the heavens above. The Earth and the heavens four directions).

And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron. Deuteronomy 28:23.


So maybe the man with the rod of iron will have Earthly correction.

Not Jesus or Bahaullah?

This is the sword from the mouth of Baha'u'llah:

"And further He saith: “Out of his mouth goeth a two-edged sword.” Know thou that since the sword is an instrument that divideth and cleaveth asunder, and since there proceedeth from the mouth of the Prophets and the Chosen Ones of God that which separateth the believer from the infidel and the lover from the beloved, this term hath been so employed, and apart from this dividing and separating no other meaning is intended."
Gems of Divine Mysteries | Bahá’í Reference Library (bahai.org)



But it seems the sword has a specific position within the repeated directions:

Brass - Silver - Gold.
Spear - Sword - Bow.
Straw - Dust - Stubble.
Corn - Oil - Wine
Moon - Star - Sun
Desert - Wilderness - Mount


Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? he gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow. Isaiah 41:3


The sword of Baha'ullah doesn't turn swords to dust.
His sword was not made with a star.

The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear. Habakkuk 3:11

The truth is in the details.
