About the Product:
Cleansing the temple in the meridian of time, the Savior said to the money changers: "Make not my Father's house an house of merchandise." From this scene early in Jesus' ministry to the magnificent imagery of the book of Revelation, temple worship and temple symbolism play a significant role throughout the New Testament. This ground-breaking book takes a fascinating and informative look at that role and its implications for Latter-day Saints.
The authors' thought-provoking analyses of the Gospels, particularly Luke and John, and other books of the New Testament-Acts, Hebrews, Revelation-show that the temple was a central feature not only in Jesus' life and ministry but also in those of his disciples, who, after his ascension, "were continually in the temple." Detailed descriptions of ancient Israel's temples and how they functioned establish historical context for the discussions. And over forty photographs, paintings, and drawings help to illustrate and enrich the text.
Most of all, this book reaffirms what modern temple-attending Saints know to be true: that Jesus Christ, being the key figure in his Father's plan, is the focus of worship in his Father's house, both anciently and today.
