Doctrinal Commentary On The Book Of Mormon: Volume 1: First And Second Nephi By Joseph Field McConkie, Robert L. Millet, And Brent L. Top
Details
In our reading and study, no other book can begin to take the place of the Book of Mormon. Indeed, as Joseph Smith said, "a man [will] get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book." Because it is read with varying degrees of understanding, most of us could benefit by some aid to that understanding.
Volume one covers the books of First and Second Nephi, which contain a concentration of some of the most beautiful doctrinal expressions in the entire record. In this volume we read of Lehi's family as they journey from the doomed city of Jerusalem to a promised land far away. We come to know Nephi and admire his unwavering faith and strength. We feast upon the deep doctrines of the atonement and the place of happiness.
Dividing the material into convenient topical sections, authors Joseph Fielding McConkie, Robert L. Millet, and Brent L. Top discuss not only their own highly informed insights of a lifetime of scholarship and study, but they also present illuminating doctrine from prophets both ancient and modern.
Doctrinal Commentary on the Book of Mormon covers the entire Book of Mormon text and explores its many profound themes - from the transcendent blessing of the divine Savior's appearances all the way down to the depths of human evil and depravity - and will assist us in understanding this great Restoration scripture.
