Written by the author of the popular Every Person in the Book of Mormon, this valuable book provides pertinent biographical information on more than 220 individuals and groups mentioned in the text and headings of the Doctrine and Covenants.
The biographical sketches are presented in four groups: Latter-day People, Book of Mormon People, New Testament People, and Old Testament People. The biographical sketches are presented in alphabetical order, by group, with each sketch presented in a year-by-year chronological fashion. Sources are carefully identified. Occasional conflicting historical data are noted. No person is excluded--the book covers both saints and sinners.
This is one of the most useful Doctrine and Covenants study aids in print! Clearly, a strong knowledge and understanding of individuals who are referred to in the scriptures is essential for grasping the deepest meanings of the Lord's revealed words. |
