He describes Abdullah's manner of teaching — by shock, with physical gestures demonstrating passages of scripture, always opening the meeting with a set phrase about unity.

Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [535047] belong to telling lecture nids [1258]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1967 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1967 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 2 December 1966
bound
Reasoning
Passage 535047 recounts how Abdullah taught and what he always did, following passage 535046's explicit 'years ago.' Node 1258 is independently dated 1966-12-02, so the teaching period predates that telling; no supplied witness safely narrows the period further.

Why
M7 dating pass (529; 525's readers, packet 014)
Reasoning
Habitual teaching manner ('he always began the meeting...') recalled after 'years ago' in 535046. Neville met Abdullah 1929-31 (events 963, 765), was still his student in 1933 (7843, 19859: studied Hebrew with him for years) and lived near him 1933-36 (766); Abdullah's own copyrights run to 1935. A class of 15-20, mostly Black students, is his New York class of that period.
Told
2 December 1966
estimated · probable
Why
Lane L7 (#2354) re-derivation. Supersedes in substance, not in storage, the refuted-date told claim(s) on this event; those rows stand per append-only.
Reasoning
Re-derived, not walked down. The existing told claim(s) on this event took their date from a delivery claim on node 1258 that the corpus has since REFUTED, so the corpus was asserting that Neville told this on a day it separately says he did not lecture. That is a contradiction rather than an over-confidence, and lowering the confidence would have hidden it instead of resolving it. The refutation stands and the told claim is the wrong side of it. Node 1258 surviving (non-refuted) claim: 1966-12-2 at `probable`. All claims on the node: 1967-1-27 refuted; 1966-12-2 probable (preferred). Superseded here: delta 0: 1967-01-27 at `certain` (run `corpus v1 / phase3b`) | delta 1: 1967-01-27 at `probable` (run `v1.1/l4/ceiling/c2`). The telling is dated by its lecture, so with the refuted date removed from consideration the surviving claim is what the telling inherits, at that claim own confidence and no higher.

stated · refuted
Reasoning
|| v1.1/l7/told-close: the delivery claim this was derived from (nid 1258, 1967-1-27) was refuted by the L7 adjudication (#2363). The corrected told claim from the same lecture stands at 1966-12-2. This row is retired rather than deleted so the derivation history remains readable.
27 January 1967
stated · refuted
Why
Corrects the confidence of the told claim written by run `corpus v1 / phase3b` at delta 0 on this event; that claim is left standing per append-only. Ceiling rule #2132.
Reasoning
Confidence only; the date is not re-adjudicated and is left exactly as written. This claim is derived from the delivery claims of node 1258 and asserts `certain`, but the strongest claim that node carries is `probable`, so there is nothing for `certain` to inherit from. nid 1258 delivery claims: 1967-1-27 possible; 1966-12-2 probable. Walked back to `probable`, the ceiling. Whether the DATE is right is a separate question this row does not touch; if the evidence turns out to support more confidence, it will have to come from a source other than this node. || v1.1/l7/told-close: the delivery claim this was derived from (nid 1258, 1967-1-27) was refuted by the L7 adjudication (#2363). The corrected told claim from the same lecture stands at 1966-12-2. This row is retired rather than deleted so the derivation history remains readable.
