Isaiah in the Book of Mormon
Author: Donald W. Parry
Publisher: Maxwell Institute
ISBN: 9780934893299
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Of Isaiah' prophetic writings, the resurrected Lord taught, "Search these things diligently; for great are the words of Isaiah" (3 Nephi 32:1). Yet no chapters in the Book of Mormon are more difficult to understand than the Isaiah passages quoted by Nephi, Jacob, Abinadi, and Christ himself. The 17 essays in Isaiah in the Book of Mormon take a variety of approaches in seeking to help readers make the most of Isaiah's teachings. The contributing scholars draw on the Book of Mormon prophets as knowledgeable guides, examining how and why those ancient writers used and interpreted Isaiah's prophetic teachings. They explain Nephi's keys for understanding the great prophet, use historical and linguistic information to clarify his meanings, examine recurring themes, and reflect on the influence of these texts on ancient and modern saints.

Understanding the Book of Mormon
Author: Grant Hardy
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199745447
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Mark Twain once derided the Book of Mormon as "chloroform in print." Long and complicated, written in the language of the King James version of the Bible, it boggles the minds of many. Yet it is unquestionably one of the most influential books ever written. With over 140 million copies in print, it is a central text of one of the largest and fastest-growing faiths in the world. And, Grant Hardy shows, it's far from the coma-inducing doorstop caricatured by Twain. In Understanding the Book of Mormon, Hardy offers the first comprehensive analysis of the work's narrative structure in its 180 year history. Unlike virtually all other recent world scriptures, the Book of Mormon presents itself as an integrated narrative rather than a series of doctrinal expositions, moral injunctions, or devotional hymns. Hardy takes readers through its characters, events, and ideas, as he explores the story and its messages. He identifies the book's literary techniques, such as characterization, embedded documents, allusions, and parallel narratives. Whether Joseph Smith is regarded as author or translator, it's noteworthy that he never speaks in his own voice; rather, he mediates nearly everything through the narrators Nephi, Mormon, and Moroni. Hardy shows how each has a distinctive voice, and all are woven into an integral whole. As with any scripture, the contending views of the Book of Mormon can seem irreconcilable. For believers, it is an actual historical document, transmitted from ancient America. For nonbelievers, it is the work of a nineteenth-century farmer from upstate New York. Hardy transcends this intractable conflict by offering a literary approach, one appropriate to both history and fiction. Regardless of whether readers are interested in American history, literature, comparative religion, or even salvation, he writes, the book can best be read if we examine the text on its own terms.

The Book of Mormon Code
Author: Natasha Pizorno
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781676403852
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
Could the ancient authors of The Book of Mormon have strategically encrypted additional layers of sacred messages beneath the surface of the text we have yet to notice and benefit from? After a decade of exhilarating and meticulous research into this theory, educator and author Natasha Pizorno unearths countless astonishing divine Hebrew ciphers throughout this sacred book. This fascinating, faith promoting book is a game changer for anyone ready to take scripture study to the next level. By learning the code you'll discover:*Laban's sword, Lehi's tent, and Nephi's ship are actually Hebrew cryptograms. *"And it came to pass" is an ancient encoded symbol of the crucifixion of Christ. *How and why the entire Hebrew alphabet is embedded in 1st Nephi. *How the modern sacrament prayer retains the Hebrew word for blood and water. *Why the pattern of three is so prolific and profound in The Book of Mormon, and much more. Those who know the code, will never read the scriptures the same way again!"The author's comprehensive examination of ancient cryptograms is not only eye-opening, but also enthralling. Written in a user-friendly format that defies the dry and often pretentious presentation of research of this caliber, this book could be categorized as a non-fiction mystery thriller. The Book of Mormon Code is truly a page turner you will want to refer to frequently whether you're studying The Book of Mormon or The Bible. Anyone with a desire to enhance his or her knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ and grow closer to the Savior should read this book!"Ardeth Kapp, Young Women's General President 1984-92
