Today, for the 254th consecutive week of its 255.5 weeks of existence, the Interpreter Foundation has published a new article<\/a> in Interpreter: A Journal of Mormon Scripture<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.mormoninterpreter.com\/understanding-jacobs-teachings-about-plural-marriage-from-a-law-of-moses-context\/<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Not bad, really.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

And these articles, like virtually everything else that the Interpreter Foundation does, are prepared, published, and made available at no cost.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

With that in mind\u00a0. . .<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

I blush to mention it, but, well, despite the fact that the almost all of those involved in Interpreter (including yours truly, for those who wonder) are unpaid volunteers, there are unavoidably some costs involved in this effort. \u00a0And they\u2019re not insubstantial. \u00a0And there are more things that we want to do that would cost more money still<\/em>. \u00a0So, if you ever feel inclined to kick in a dollar or two<\/a> \u2014 even small donations are helpful and are welcomed \u2014 it wouldn\u2019t be resented much:<\/p>\n
