Mine House Is A House Of Zion And Not A House Of Babylon!, Loren Spendlove Jan 2021

Mine House Is A House Of Zion And Not A House Of Babylon!, Loren Spendlove

Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scholarship

In Doctrine and Covenants 132:8 we read: “Behold, mine house is a house of order, saith the Lord God, and not a house of confusion.” I propose that the words “order” and “confusion” in this passage are literary allusions to the ideals, constructs, and outcomes that embody Zion and Babylon, respectively. In other words, God’s house is a house of Zion and not a house of Babylon.


Tamid: Zacharias And The Second Temple, Lisle G. Brown Jan 2021

Tamid: Zacharias And The Second Temple, Lisle G. Brown

Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scholarship

This essay follows Zacharias’ biography from entering the priesthood till the day the angel Gabriel appeared to him in Herod’s temple. After recounting the procedures to become a priest, Brown focuses on the day when Zacharias prepared to bring one of the two central standing offerings. He points out that likely, a priest would only have a once in a lifetime chance to partake in the core of this ceremony, entering the Holy Room and burning incense on the Inner Altar. Brown paints a very visual picture of this day, immersing us in the ritual of the time, a ritual …


An Early Christian Context For The Book Of Moses, David Calabro Jan 2021

An Early Christian Context For The Book Of Moses, David Calabro

Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scholarship

This study argues that the Book of Moses was an early Christian text. The book’s language, literary genre, and references to its own production could fit with a date in the late first century AD. Further, the study argues that a possible ritual context of the book was a baptismal ritual, as suggested by the detailed description of Adam’s baptism in Moses 6. A comparison between the content of the Book of Moses and early Christian sources on baptism shows some close resemblances, which may suggest that the Book of Moses was read aloud, and perhaps portrayed as a ritual …


Framing The Book Of Abraham: Presumptions And Paradigms, Stephen O. Smoot Jan 2021

Framing The Book Of Abraham: Presumptions And Paradigms, Stephen O. Smoot

Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scholarship

The Book of Abraham continues to undergo scrutiny in both academic and polemical publications. The latest offering of substance in the latter category, Dan Vogel’s Book of Abraham Apologetics: A Review and Critique, criticizes the work of those who argue for the antiquity and inspiration of the Book of Abraham and makes a sustained argument that the book is, instead, modern pseudepigrapha written by a pious fraud (Joseph Smith) in the nineteenth century. Book of Abraham Apologetics lays out a particular naturalistic approach to this text that works best only when certain metaphysical and methodological assumptions are taken for granted. …


The Rise And Fall Of Korihor, A Zoramite: A New Look At The Failed Mission Of An Agent Of Zoram, Godfrey J. Ellis Jan 2021

The Rise And Fall Of Korihor, A Zoramite: A New Look At The Failed Mission Of An Agent Of Zoram, Godfrey J. Ellis

Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scholarship

The accounts of the Anti-Christ, Korihor, and of Alma’s mission to the Zoramites raise a variety of apparently unanswered questions. These involve Korihor’s origins, the reason for the similarity of his beliefs to those of the Zoramites, and why he switched so quickly from an atheistic attack to an agnostic plea. Another intriguing question is whether it was actually the devil himself who taught him what to say and sent him on a mission to the land of Zarahemla — or was it a surrogate of the devil or a human “devil” such as, perhaps, Zoram? Final questions are how …
