Searching Again For Old World Bountiful
Searching Again For Old World Bountiful
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship

Looking For The Nephite Bountiful
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
A grant from F.A.R.M.S. will support a photographic reconnaissance trip in southern Mexico at the end of December. At the invitation of John Sorenson, Dr. David Palmer and Mexican associates will examine a small area just east of the Coatzacoalcos River near the Gulf of Mexico where one or more archaeological ruins are thought to exist (remains have been re ported informally). Sorenson proposed in An Ancient American Setting for the Book of Mormon that the city of Bountiful where the Savior visited was possibly located about there.

Nibley On "Criticizing The Authorities"
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
At the Church Educational System Symposium at BYU and the Sunstone Symposium in Salt Lake City in August, Hugh Nibley presented a paper on "Criticizing the Authorities." His paper draws heavily on the writings of Joseph Smith since, according to Brother Nibley, "criticism of the Church and its leaders has always centered around him."

Does the Book of Mormon stand alone when it says that Jesus taught important gospel messages after his resurrection? "No," answers Hugh Nibley, as he surveys the "40 day literature" in his 1966 article entitled Evangelium Quadraginta Dierum. Although modern biblical scholars tend to discount the early Christian accounts of the post-resurrection ministry of the Savior, Nibley argues for a literal, historical interpretation. From this, an interesting perspective on 3 Nephi can emerge.

Nephi's Arrows Create Solid Bulls-Eye, Joseph Fielding Smith
Nephi's Arrows Create Solid Bulls-Eye, Joseph Fielding Smith
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Three times in 1 Nephi 16 we are told that Nephi broke his steel bow. Never does it say that he broke any arrows. Yet when Nephi makes a new wooden bow, the text also says that he made "out of a straight stick, an arrow." (1 Ne. 16:23). Why would he need to make new arrows when he apparently still had a quiver full of old ones?

Jewish Festivals In Zarahemla
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
The recent discovery of evidence in the Book of Alma of an observance of a Feast of Passover is likely to be remembered as one of the most significant finds of the year. On August 15, a good sized group met at a special F.A.R.M.S. research meeting. The discussion was led by Gordon Thomasson. The purpose was to rethink many Book of Mormon passages in light of ancient Israelite festivals, and some very striking results emerged.

Additional Study Aids
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
F.A.R.M.S. has frequently been asked to recommend books that people might read to learn more about the world of Lehi, the ancient source of much of the Book of Mormon. Beside the classic works by Hugh Nibley, Lehi in the Desert, An Approach to the Book of Mormon, and Since Cumorah, a very valuable book is by Father Roland de Vaux, Ancient Israel, in two volumes (McGraw Hill). Although slightly dated, the book remains extremely insightful, generally readable and reliable, and conveniently available in paperback.
Farms Monthly Updates

Some Newsletter readers may be unaware that since December, 1983, monthly one-page information memos have been produced by the Foundation and distributed to Cornerstone Club contributors. These releases are short, specific reports on late-breaking news about pertinent discoveries or research findings. Some of this information later appears in abbreviated form in the Newsletter or other public sources, but those contributors who read the Monthly Update receive the news first from this unique information service.

Certain well known patterns of human behavior are accurately depicted in the Book of Mormon. For example, Hugh Nibley has explored the pattern of the flight of the righteous into the wilderness. A striking new study now describes another pattern for our consideration.
Book Of Mormon Critical Text
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Critical texts of the Bible have been available for many years, showing variant readings from early Greek or Hebrew manuscripts accompanying the familiar phrasing of the standard Bible. Heavily footnoted, these volumes show how words and structures of the text have appeared in different editions over time and in different languages. They have become an essential tool for scholarly research on the scripture. They also aid serious readers by clarifying how the text may be interpreted.

President's Message, John W. Welch
President's Message, John W. Welch
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
In 1832, Section 84 of the Doctrine and Covenants was revealed to the Prophet Joseph Smith. In this great section, the Lord explained one of the reasons why the people of the Church languished in spiritual darkness: "And your minds in times past have been darkened because of unbelief, and because you have treated lightly the things you have received..." Members of the Church were told that they would remain under condemnation until "they repent and remember the new covenant, even the Book of Mormon and the former commandments" which had been given to them (D&C 84:53, 57).
Metonymy In The Book Of Mormon
Metonymy In The Book Of Mormon
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
A suggestion by Gordon Thomasson led to a May 3 seminar where 11 F.A.R.M.S. collaborators examined another subtle stylistic feature in the Book of Mormon. Metonymy is the practice of giving a person or place a name whose meaning reflects an event or trait associated with that person or place. A closely related practice sees a person's name become symbolic of some phenomenon. An example of metonymy is in I Sam. 25 where a man is said to have been named Nabal, "fool," because he refused to aid David and his supporters. The second pattern is shown in the statement …
Is Mulek Mentioned In The Bible?
Is Mulek Mentioned In The Bible?
Insights: The Newsletter of the Neal A. Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship
Helaman 6:10 records that Zedekiah, King of Judah in Lehi's day, had a son named Mulek who escaped execution by the Babylonians, despite the statement in 2 Kings 25:4-7 that the king's sons were slain. While the name Mulek is not mentioned directly in the Bible, scholars have recently drawn some interesting conclusions about a person named Malchiah, mentioned in Jer. 38:6. Could he have been Mulek?
Prophetic Method In Controlling Feelings Of Anger And Its Impact On Parental Education, Iman Khalel
Prophetic Method In Controlling Feelings Of Anger And Its Impact On Parental Education, Iman Khalel
Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series
This study, derived from my doctoral thesis on the Prophetic method in managing feelings of anger and its impact on parenting education, explores the definition of anger, its causes and effects, and the characteristics of the Prophetic approach to managing anger. The Prophetic approach provides the most comprehensive and critical foundations in the process of managing feelings of anger, suggesting that parents should adopt this method to set a positive example for their children. The study also posits that the most effective way to achieve a normal, positive society free of problems and behavioral deviations is through educating its members …
The Position Of Twelver Shia On The Qur’An: Presentation And Critique, Eid Harahsheh
The Position Of Twelver Shia On The Qur’An: Presentation And Critique, Eid Harahsheh
Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series
This study addresses a very important topic: the position of the Shiites regarding the Holy Qur’an. It clarifies their views on the authenticity of the Qur’an, allegations of its distortion, and the belief in its outward and inward aspects. To achieve its objectives, the study employed both descriptive and critical approaches. It concluded that the Twelver Shiites rely on some myths and concepts not grounded in reality in their understanding of the Qur’an. The study recommended exercising caution in dealing with the Twelver Shiites, especially given the proliferation of satellite channels and social media, as they tend to mix various …
