Description

After translating and publishing The Book of Mormon, Joseph Smith was inspired to embark on a Bible translation project to restore “many plain and precious parts” (see 1 Nephi 13:28) that had been lost throughout time. But how was this work accomplished? How has this translation of Genesis 1:1—Genesis 6:13 been received by early and modern Church members? In this episode, professor of ancient scripture Aaron P. Schade discusses his recent publication The Book of Moses: From the Ancient to the Latter Days, co-authored with Professor Matthew L. Bowen. Professor Schade describes the revelatory translation process, highlights its historicity in the Doctrine and Covenants, and examines how the Book of Moses transcends time and continues to influence Church members today.   Publications: The Book of Moses: From the Ancient of Days to the Latter Days (RSC/Deseret Book, 2021) Summary write up of The Book of Moses: From the Ancient of Days to the Latter Days (Review Magazine, 2022) Click here to learn more about professor Aaron Schade

Each year, religion professors at Brigham Young University (BYU) produce hundreds of publications on subjects related to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This podcast brings this research into one place to enlighten the everyday seeker of truth. Interviewing the author, we discuss why the study was done, why it matters, and why the professor chooses to be both a scholar, and a disciple. This is Y Religion.
