The Book of Abraham, with the facsimiles, is a unique scripture to
the Latter-day Saints. Its content is closely related to our
understanding of the Plan of Happiness. Numerous books and
publications have been written about the Egyptology and science in
the facsimiles. However, the Egyptians worshiped pagan gods. This
book is a unique attempt to consider the Prophet's "Explanations"
of the facsimiles as scripture, with a minimum of Egyptian
interference. The facsimiles teach wholesome, uplifting and divine
principles. They were received by divine revelation and were meant
to be studied by that same influence. The Prophet Joseph Smith
obtained the Egyptian papyri in July, 1835. He waited seven years
before he published his translation in 1842. This was only a few
weeks before he performed the first temple endowments in our
dispensation. Nothing sacred to the temple is discussed in this
text. However, those who make regular temple worship an important
component of their lives may have an especially insightful
understanding. The facsimiles depict events that actually happened
in the lives of the participants. The Pharaoh attempted to
sacrifice Abraham, Facsimile 1. Abraham experienced a cosmic tour
of the heavens, Facsimile 2. Shulem was sealed by the Priesthood to
his wife for time and all eternity, in an authorized temple
ceremony. He drew us a picture of it, in representative form,
Facsimile 3.
