Discover the history and doctrine presented in the Book of Moses Just two months after the Church was organized, the Lord directed Joseph Smith to read the bible carefully and correct it by revelation. The Book of Moses, as it now appears in the Pearl of Great Price, was the first written material to emerge from the inspired effort. In this volume, Kent P. Jackson reproduces the text of the Book of Moses as the Prophe3t left it for publication. He also provides an introductory history to provide background for your in-depth study of the text. Remarkably, some of the changes have never been printed because of confusion over which manuscript to use. A must-read for those who want to understand how the scriptures came to be. Kent P. Jackson is a professor of ancient scripture at Brigham Young University, where he has taught since 1980. He earned his Ph.D. in ancient Near Eastern and Biblical studies from the University of Michigan. An expert on the Joseph Smith Translation, he has published numerous books and articles on scriptural topics. He edited or co-edited six of the volumes in the Studies in Scriptures series. He and his wife, Nancy, are the parents of five children. Used Book in Good Condition
