The Gospel For Everyone: A Study In The Gospel Of Luke On The Inclusion Of Marginalized Social Groups, Hebert Davi Liessi Jan 2021

The Gospel For Everyone: A Study In The Gospel Of Luke On The Inclusion Of Marginalized Social Groups, Hebert Davi Liessi

All Books

Salvation is a broad and controversial issue. The author of the third gospel, Luke, wrote in a socially inclusive approach to Jesus Christ's salvation. His focus is that the gospel serves all people, including groups marginalized by society to dominant groups. Through reading this book, you can see the social groups, the different methodologies, and the results of the salvation offered by Jesus Christ.

A Devised Ethnodrama: Conscious Voices, Sonia Pasqual Jan 2021

A Devised Ethnodrama: Conscious Voices, Sonia Pasqual

Master of Liberal Studies Theses

Using techniques of storytelling, dance, poems, and monologues in the process of re-enacting life stories, the ensemble display issues that may be impeding society’s growth—discrimination against body image, blackness, females, and LGBTQ individuals. In addition, engagement in storytelling and performance can help the audience increase their cognitive skills, empathy, and ability to live a communal life. This evidence-based practice can transform lives and society. It has the potential of continuing to other faculties and with other departments, such as film, musical, and additional narratives. This specific work could be extended out beyond art and education into populations of any communities …


“All Can Partake, Freely”, Daniel C. Peterson Jan 2021

“All Can Partake, Freely”, Daniel C. Peterson

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

The Interpreter Foundation welcomes faithful ideas, insights, and manuscripts from people of all backgrounds. In this brief essay, I share some that were recently shared with me regarding Lehi’s vision of the tree of life, as recorded in 1 Nephi 8. Among other things, Lehi seems to have been shown that the divine offer of salvation extends far beyond a small elite. As Peter exclaims in the King James rendering of Acts 10:34, “God is no respecter of persons.” Other translations render the same words as saying that he doesn’t “play favorites” or “show partiality.” The passage in James 1:5 …


Poesy And Prosody In The Book Of Mormon, Robert F. Smith Jan 2021

Poesy And Prosody In The Book Of Mormon, Robert F. Smith

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

Robert Smith makes the case that “poetic art in the Book of Mormon is highly developed” — you just need to have the eye to recognize it. Though many readers are aware of the stunning examples of chiasmus in the Book of Mormon, thanks to the pioneering work by John W. Welch, fewer are acquainted with the other important forms of parallelism that pervade the text, often placed strategically to highlight the importance of a particular passage. Smith also shows why apocalpytic texts, sometimes thought to originate at a later period, can be found, for example, in the first chapter …


Honoring Hugh Nibley — Again, Louis Midgley Jan 2021

Honoring Hugh Nibley — Again, Louis Midgley

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

Hugh Nibley Observed is the third assembly of essays honoring Nibley by his friends and admirers. It differs from the other two in many ways. It is packed with photographs, observations by his children about their father, and many other similar and related items that are often deeply personal reflections on Nibley as well as the influence he has had on Latter- day Saint intellectual life and also the faith of the Saints. Its contents are far more accessible than the strictly scholarly works written by the academic friends and colleagues of Nibley. There is some of that in this …


Jesus’ First Visit To The Temple, S. Kent Brown Jan 2021

Jesus’ First Visit To The Temple, S. Kent Brown

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

In this rich and detailed description, S. Kent Brown paints an evocative, historically contextualized account of Jesus Christ’s first visit to the Jerusalem Temple since his infancy, when at age twelve he traveled with his family to attend Passover.


Better Kingdom-Building Through Triage, Daniel C. Peterson Jan 2021

Better Kingdom-Building Through Triage, Daniel C. Peterson

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

We are called to take the Gospel to the entire world, but our numbers are few and our time and resources are limited. This is where cold calculation can help. A field-surgical technique pioneered during the Napoleonic Wars of the early nineteenth century and refined in the butchery of World War I a century later offers a useful model for making our missionary efforts more efficient and more effective.


Ancient Temple Imagery In The Sermons Of Jacob, David E. Bokovoy Jan 2021

Ancient Temple Imagery In The Sermons Of Jacob, David E. Bokovoy

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

This essay makes a compelling argument for Jacob, the brother of Nephi, having deep knowledge of ancient Israelite temple ritual, concepts, and imagery, based on two of Jacob’s sermons in 2 Nephi 9 and Jacob 1-3. For instance, he discusses the duty of the priest to expiate sin and make atonement before the Lord and of entering God’s presence. Jacob quotes temple-related verses from the Old Testament, like Psalm 95. The allusions to the temple are not forced, but very subtle. Of course, Jacob’s central topic, the atonement, is a temple topic itself, and its opposite, impurity, is also expressed …


Glad Tidings From Cumorah: Interpreting The Book Of Mormon Through The Eyes Of Someone In Hell, Steve Fotheringham Jan 2021

Glad Tidings From Cumorah: Interpreting The Book Of Mormon Through The Eyes Of Someone In Hell, Steve Fotheringham

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

This article offers evidence that at least some Book of Mormon authors may have understood the potential for post-mortal preaching of the gospel. Indeed, they may have recognized that the future Book of Mormon would be a tool to spread the gospel not only among the living but also among those in the spirit world. Prophecies about the message of the Book of Mormon and the restored gospel being for all mankind may have broader scope than previously recognized, with application on both sides of the veil.


The Origin And Purpose Of The Book Of Mormon Phrase “If Ye Keep My Commandments Ye Shall Prosper In The Land”, Taylor Halverson Jan 2021

The Origin And Purpose Of The Book Of Mormon Phrase “If Ye Keep My Commandments Ye Shall Prosper In The Land”, Taylor Halverson

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

We are told in the Title Page of the Book of Mormon that the Book of Mormon was revealed in our day “to show unto the remnant of the house of Israel what great things the Lord hath done for their fathers; and that they may know the covenants of the Lord, that they are not cast off forever.” Hence, the covenantal context, structure, and logic of the Book of Mormon demand further consideration, exploration, and elucidation. A prosperous starting point is the phrase “If ye keep my commandments ye shall prosper in the land.” This covenantal phrase is used …


Book Of Abraham Polemics: Dan Vogel’S Broad Critique Of The Defense Of The Book Of Abraham, Jeff Lindsay Jan 2021

Book Of Abraham Polemics: Dan Vogel’S Broad Critique Of The Defense Of The Book Of Abraham, Jeff Lindsay

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

Dan Vogel’s latest book claims to offer clear-cut evidence showing what, when, and how Joseph Smith fraudulently translated the Book of Abraham. While he claims to use an objective approach, he instead weaves a polemical agenda that ignores some of the most important scholarship in favor of the Book of Abraham. He ignores crucial evidence and relies on assumptions and hypotheses as if they were established facts. The arguments of apologists, which he claims to be reviewing and critiquing, are often overlooked or, when treated, attacked without letting readers know the substance of the apologetic argument. He neglects key arguments …

Buddhas And Body Language: The Literary Trope Of The Buddha's Smile, David Fiordalis Jan 2021

Buddhas And Body Language: The Literary Trope Of The Buddha's Smile, David Fiordalis

Faculty Publications

This essay explores how classical Buddhist literature, across a variety of traditional genres, portrays the wondrous smile of the Buddha. Despite its literary register, the Buddha’s smile is first and foremost a nonverbal gesture, and if we are to understand its significance, then we must employ a theoretical approach that treats it as such. Multimodality provides such an approach. While an emergent body of psychological research has argued that the smile is a universal human gesture connected to a rather limited set of emotional states like happiness, the recognition that smiles can be voluntary acts highlights the importance of situational …


Los Budas Y El Lenguaje Corporal: El Tropo Literario De La Sonrisa Del Buda, David Fiordalis Jan 2021

Los Budas Y El Lenguaje Corporal: El Tropo Literario De La Sonrisa Del Buda, David Fiordalis

Faculty Publications

Este ensayo explora cómo retrata la literatura budista clásica la sonrisa del Buda. La sonrisa del Buda es un gesto no verbal, y para entender su significado debemos emplear un enfoque teórico que la trate como tal. La multimodalidad puede proporcionar tal enfoque. Un conjunto emergente de investigación psicológica ha argumentado que la sonrisa es un gesto humano universal conectado a un grupo limitado de estados emocionales, pero reconocer que las sonrisas pueden ser actos voluntarios destaca la importancia del contexto situacional. Dado que la sonrisa del Buda nos llega desde un contexto histórico y cultural ajeno a la evidencia …
