Eldin Ricks's Concordance Aids Scripture Study
Eldin Ricks's Concordance Aids Scripture Study
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Eldin Ricks devoted his career to a study of the scriptures. In addition to spending thirty-six years teaching and inspiring students at BYU, he wrote many books and articles about the scriptures--especially materials intended to help others study the scriptures, such as his Combination Reference, often known as the "Ricks Ready Reference," and editions of the Book of Mormon intended to make reading and studying the book easier (his Fireside Editions and Wide Margin Edition). But one project that he worked on for much of the last twenty years of his life was uncompleted at his death in …

Old World People In The New? (Part 2), John L. Sorenson
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
The Quiche Indian tradition of "Toltec" migrants from the Near East reaching Mesoamerica (see Insights, April 1995) may be of interest in relation to new linguistic research reported by a senior linguist at one of this country's most prestigious universities. Copies of two papers outlining her findings have become available; however she insists that their contents not be attributed to her until they have been formally published.

Review Begins New Features: Picks And Index
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
In the latest Review of Books on the Book of Mormon, editor Daniel Peterson selects the books he would most recommend to his readers from among those published in 1994. The book by Warren and Michaela Aston is the most highly recommended in this issue: In the Footsteps of Lehi: New Evidence for Lehi's Journey across Arabia to Bountiful (reviewed by Ara Norwood). Peterson recommends the book enthusiastically for its "brief and rather personal summary of the authors' extremely important research into the Arabian geography" that might correspond to 1 Nephi.

Data Base Impresses Scholars At Farms-Sponsored Scroll Conference In Jerusalem
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Several BYU professors and FARMS staff and board members recently returned from a successful conference in Jerusalem. On April 30, BYU and FARMS cosponsored the Judaean Desert Scrolls Conference at the BYU Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies. The primary purpose of the conference was to present the first working version of the Dead Sea Scrolls Electronic Database, the latest technology using computer images and text search features to aid research on the Dead Sea Scrolls (described in recent issues of Insights).

Format Changes
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
We have made some changes that we hope will make Insights even more useful. We have organized the news into departments to make it easier to find. We have restructured the page format somewhat so we could punch the paper to fit in a binder for storage-for those who wish to use a binder with the FARMS name and logo, we are negotiating with manufacturers to obtain nicelooking binders for a reasonable price; we should be able to offer these by the next issue.
Ricks's Thorough Concordance
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
In 1971, Eldin Ricks initiated the first project to put the scriptures into computer form. The database that resulted has been used as the basis for the Topical Guide and other scriptural references and was the original database for the Church's distribution of the scriptures in computer form (LDS View) and for most other recent concordances, both computer and printed. But Brother Ricks always had in mind a printed concordance of the LDS scriptures comparable to the James Strong Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible, which lists all occurrences of all words in the scripture text, shown with a meaningful …

New Video Lectures
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Two new lectures are available in the FARMS Book of Mormon Lecture Series. Dale Le Baron, associate professor of Church History at BYU, discusses how the Book of Mormon presents "A Pattern for Preparing a People to Meet Christ." This pattern includes: know the signs of the second coming; beware of wickedness; know the patterns of destruction; believe that despite persecution, righteousness will prevail; heed the counsel of the prophets; and study the ministry and the return of Christ. The Lord's elect are responsible for preparing his people for the second coming of the Savior. Brother LeBaron counsels us to …
Temple Worship And Symbolism In The New Testament
Temple Worship And Symbolism In The New Testament
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Imagine yourself as one of Jesus' disciples standing with him at the very moment when he fashions the whip and drives the money changers from the temple. My Father's House begins with this captivating scene, drawing the reader in with fascinating descriptions of not only the temple structure, but also the surrounding lands, buildings, and people. Authors Richard Holzapfel and David Seely entrance the reader with details about ancient temple practices, customs, and symbolism.

Griggs To Translate Egyptian Papyri
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Wilfred Griggs of the Department of Ancient Scripture at BYU has been given authorization to examine a set of over 150 papyri found years ago layered underground in some stone enclosures near an ancient temple in western Fayum, Egypt. The discoverers, unable to read the ancient language(s) of the writer(s), simply put the treasure in storage. The papyri are believed to be from the first through the fourth centuries and written in Greek, with possibly some Coptic.
Early Lds Views Of Millennium
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
What did early Church members think about the end of the world and the ushering in of the Millennium? In The Millenarian World of Early Mormonism (University of Illinois Press), Grant Underwood examines how profoundly influenced the Church was by the view of an imminent second coming of Christ and millennial transformation of the earth. What makes this book of interest to FARMS readers is its detailed exploration of early Latter-day Saint understandings of the Bible and the Book of Mormon.

Madsen Inspires Fireside Attendees On Temple Worship
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Some 800 members of the Arcadia and Pasadena (California) stakes sat engrossed at a FARMS-sponsored fireside on 20 January 1995 as speaker Truman Madsen presented three questions about temple worship and the Atonement. First, if you knew that Christ himself was to minister unto you in the nearby temple, would you be there? Second, if you knew you could receive at the hands of the Savior a kind of patriarchal blessing for the rightful use of your human talents, would you be there? Third, how much will you give to receive God's all?

The first three presentations of 1995 at the FARMS brown bag seminar (held every other week at BYU) reported on research in progress on topics as diverse as errors in the transmission of the biblical text of Samuel, the Egyptian roots for Hebrew religious terminology, and a hierarchy of settlements in the Book of Mormon.

Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Joseph Smith is said, in 1842, to have "quoted with approval from the pulpit reports of certain Toltec legends which would make it appear that those people had come originally from the Near East in the time of Moses"; he did not connect the purported migration at all to the Book of Mormon.

Flickering The W-Defense, Michael Robinson
Flickering The W-Defense, Michael Robinson
Philosophy Faculty Articles and Research
One way to defend the Principle of Alternative Possibilities (PAP) against Frankfurt-style cases is to challenge the claim that agents in these scenarios are genuinely morally responsible for what they do. Alternatively, one can grant that agents are morally responsible for what they do in these cases but resist the idea that they could not have done otherwise. This latter strategy is known as the flicker defense of PAP. In an argument he calls the W-Defense, David Widerker adopts the former approach. I argue that, while Widerker's argument does a poor job showing that these agents are not morally responsible …
Warnings Against The Exploitation Of Children In Young Adult Dystopian Literature, James Henry Lambert
Warnings Against The Exploitation Of Children In Young Adult Dystopian Literature, James Henry Lambert
English Theses, Dissertations, and Student Creative Activity
The works of Suzanne Collins, Koushun Takami, and Neal Shusterman present a unique subset of young adult literature in which young adults are forced to kill one another. My thesis argues that the presentation of child gladiators in these stories is a form of weaponization conducted by the fictional governments as deterrent weapons against the parents of these fictional dystopias. This weaponization is accomplished through the creation of spectacular events that are meant to draw the attention to the power of the government, also as a form of deterrence against rebellion. Next, my thesis demonstrates how the human body is …

“Já Muito Estropeadas”: Bodies And Landscapes Of Oppression In Rodolfo Teófilo’S A Fome, Mikaela Wood
“Já Muito Estropeadas”: Bodies And Landscapes Of Oppression In Rodolfo Teófilo’S A Fome, Mikaela Wood
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis article analyzes Rodolfo Teófilo's novel "A fome" through the lens of ecofeminism, exploring the representations of gender and nature in Brazilian literature. The novel, set during a devastating drought in the Northeast, follows Manuel de Freitas and his family as they seek relief in Ceará. While existing criticism has focused on the novel's use of nature and masculinity, the portrayal of female characters and the connection between gender and nature representations have been overlooked. Ecofeminist theory offers a critical perspective to understand these dynamics, revealing the devaluation of women and nature in favor of men and human beings …
“My Flesh Was Its Own Shield” Eroticism In Aids Activism, Jake Whitney
“My Flesh Was Its Own Shield” Eroticism In Aids Activism, Jake Whitney
History Theses, Dissertations, and Student Creative Activity
The most enduring images of the HIV/AIDS crisis are pictures of ACT UP members being arrested and staging die-ins or men huddled together in hospital beds. These images and the historical narrative accompanying them espouse unity, a coming together of the queer community. No one manufactured this unity. Gay men came together to fight AIDS with force stronger than that which had fought back at Stonewall. Although the gay community saw increased unity during the AIDS Pandemic, the benefactors of this unity, the mainstream gay movement, marginalized men practicing radical sex through a rhetoric of anti-eroticism, a negative, rather than …
