Synopsis

As the capstone of our religion, the Doctrine and Covenants provides insights into the restored gospel of Jesus Christ not found in any of the other standard works. Here we find detailed information about priesthood offices, Church organizations, the Millennium, and a host of other topics only hinted at elsewhere.

An awareness of the background and development of Joseph Smith's revelations allows us to better understand their significance. The 37th Annual Sidney B. Sperry Symposium will help readers gain that knowledge. Written by scholars trained in a variety of fields, the articles illuminate the setting in which Joseph received his revelations. This book will help Latter-day Saints appreciate the significant roles Joseph Smith's revelations have played, and continue to play, in the dispensation of the fullness of times.
