Produktbeschreibung
Brought to you by Scripture Central, this commentary aims to make the Doctrine and Covenants and Church History more accessible, comprehensible, and defensible to people everywhere. It draws on the latest scholarship and research in Church history, including groundbreaking work from the Joseph Smith Papers project. Each section of the Doctrine and Covenants is presented in clear historical context, drawing directly from primary sources. The complete text is placed side-by-side with insightful commentary designed to increase your understanding and enlighten your mind concerning these sacred revelations. Volume 2 covers some of the most important revelations given to Joseph Smith. These sacred communications involved teachings vital to the Church such as the law of consecration, the nature of scripture, the location and purpose of the city of Zion, and the doctrine of eternity. Fascinating aspects of the Restoration, like Joseph Smith'Äôs efforts to translate the Bible, the quest to build the New Jerusalem, and the vision of the three degrees of glory, are all described in their proper context. As more and more faithful Saints gathered to the banner of the gospel, they in turn received light and truth, helping them learn of the transformative power of Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice. These revelations show that even as the early Saints gazed into visions of eternity, they also focused on the real problems of helping the poor and needy, gathering the righteous, and preparing the world for the Savior'Äôs Second Coming. Volume 2 contains the complete text of Doctrine and Covenants 41'Äì76 with verse-by-verse commentary. It also includes an appendix with the poetic version of section 76, written by Joseph Smith and W.W. Phelps.
