About Product:
Who of us can say that with any degree of certainty who Habakkuk, Haggai, or Nahum was? Or when he lived? Or what he had to say that is relevant to us?
Confused by the Old Testament's complexity, overwhelmed by its bulk. And stymied by its symbolism, many Latter-day Saints neglect this important book of scripture.
But as authors of essays in this book demonstrate, we can find treasures of gospel knowledge in the Old Testament. Many precious truths have been preserved in the record of 1 King through Malachi--evidences of the hand of the Lord in human affairs and of our relationship to him.
Edited by Kent P. Jackson, this volume supplements our study of the scriptures. Chapters by noted Latter-day Saint scholars and students of the scriptures identify the prophecies found in the ancient writings, recount the timeless stories, and point out the richness and beauty of the language in which the record has been preserved.
Not only are the words of Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel important to the Latter-day Saints but so too are the messages of Habakkuk, Haggai, and Nahum. Buried in the Hebrew record is the essence of our religion--a testimony of the love of God for all his children and the promise of the Atonement wrought by the Savior.
