A Book Review:Jeremy rated it & really liked it!This is the second (and currently last) volume in the Temples Through the Ages series, following Temples of the Ancient World . I enjoyed this book more than the first, for a couple of reasons. First, there was no repetition in this book. The previous volume contained multiple essays by the same author(s), and the introductions would rehash the same foundational ideas in detail. Second, this book is less than half the length of the first volume. It was easier to feel I was making progress with this book. I enjoyed all the essays in this book to varying degrees. My favorite was "Seven Promises to Those Who Overcome: Aspects of Genesis 2-3 in the Seven Letters" by Richard D. Draper and Donald W. Parry. This essay explored parallels between the seven promises in Revelation and the account of the Garden of Eden found in Genesis. It was fascinating to see the parallels between these two sections of scripture. Other essays treated subjects such as oaths and oathtaking, baptism for the dead, John A. Widstoe's relationship to temple work, and the Great Mosque in Mecca, among others. I was very interested to read an essay that compared the Order of Nehor with the Melchizedek Priesthood, centered on Alma and Amulek's mission to Ammonihah, but it didn't touch as heavily on Alma 13 as I hoped. I did find a reference in the footnotes to an article by Robert L. Millet that I would like to read. The essay did call out something that I had never noticed before -- the names of both Zeezrom and Antionah, lawyers who questioned Alma and Amulek, have a metonymic affinity with units of Nephite money, namely the ezrom (Alma 11:12) and the antion (Alma 11:19). Overall, a very satisfying read. I think I'll come back to some of these essays again some day. Copyright © 2018-2024 TDM Inc. The photos and text in this listing are copyrighted.
