An inside look at the foundational sacred text of one of the
world's youngest and fastest growing religions The Book of Mormon
stands alongside the Bible as the keystone of The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church/Mormonism). Translated by
the prophet Joseph Smith from ancient writings inscribed on golden
plates, the Book of Mormon is an account of people living in the
Western Hemisphere in a timeline that parallels that of the Bible.
It covers a thousand years of loss, discovery, war, peace and
spiritual principles that focus on the teachings of Jesus Christ,
outlining a plan for salvation and the responsibilities we must
assume to attain it. The Book of Mormon: Selections Annotated &
Explained explores this sacred epic that is cherished by more than
twelve million members of the LDS church as the keystone of their
faith. Probing the principal themes and historical foundation of
this controversial and provocative narrative, Jana Riess focuses on
key selections that offer insight into contemporary Mormon beliefs
and scriptural emphases, such as the atonement of Christ, the
nature of human freedom, the purpose of baptism and the need for
repentance from sin. She clarifies the religious, political and
historical events that take place in the ancient communities of the
Book of Mormon and their underlying contemporary teachings that
serve as the framework for spiritual practices that lie at the core
of Mormon life. Now you can experience this foundational sacred
text even if you have no previous knowledge of Mormonism. This
SkyLight Illuminations edition presents the key teachings and
essential concepts of the Mormon faith tradition with insightful
yet unobtrusive commentary that helps to dispel many of the
misconceptions that have surrounded the Book of Mormon since its
publication in 1830.
